It's All Love by: Jaay Dee Kayy

I haven't felt pain this unbearable since my grandmother passed,

This past week has been hell, and my breaths laced with glass,

Just the sight of your name and the pictures of you smiling,

Makes my throat thicken, and I cry at last;

Tomorrow, they're going to be laying you to rest,

And you better believe I'll be there in my most beautiful dress,

And I really hope the turnout does impress,

Because your presence moved mountains, and you deserved all the best;

It took nights of silent screams, and mini mental breakdowns,

To come to terms with the fact that you're actually gone,

But I don't ever, EVER, want you to think,

That because you stopped breathing, your soul doesn't live on,

Because the love that you shared with us, and the memories we've made,

Are enough to keep us all afloat,

But I will see you on the other side, my brother, in the afterlife,

2980 Baby, Mari the FUCKING GOAT!!

 

You will be sorely missed. I will always love you, my man.
