Sudden Death of a Forever Friend
When life began
You were already there
Forever my friend
Was unable to see
The unknown end
One day I left
But didn’t know separation
I didn’t second-guess
We’d soon have a reunion
Years passed, sightless
New lives lead
You were different
Words were left unsaid
I didn’t understand
Was the old you dead?
Time flies again
Less time went by but
I see you’re in heaven
Couldn’t wait for me
You departed early
Selfishly, I felt misled
Because you left me for death
This poem is about:
Me
My family
