A Solemn Goodbye

Dear tonsils,

I'm sorry.
I don't think that I ever fully appreciated you while I had you. At least, I never communicated that appreciation in an effective way.
You could have given me a second chance, instead of just leaving in the way you did.
It hurts more than I thought it would, now that you're actually gone. I know we've talked about you leaving before, but now that I'm facing it, the pain is almost unbearable.
I can't even talk to the other people in my life, because of the pain you have caused me.
After your removal from my life, I was left swollen and hurting in your absence.
We've been through so much together. When you experience so many difficulties with someone, you kind of expect them to be there for the rest of your life.
Apparently, you didn't see things the same way.
I'm sure you're only doing what you thought was right for you. I guess that meant leaving me. I guess now you guys can be together forever, without me getting in the way.
All the same, I miss you more than I thought I could ever miss any of my lymphatic organs.
You will always hold a special place in my heart, if not in my throat.
Goodbye.
Goodbye forever.

Love,
Keirstin
