A Painful Goodbye
At first I could not cry,
The shock was so severe.
I can't believe we lost you,
A friend held so dear.
I did not know you for long,
But it felt like years.
Now I sit alone it sinks in,
I cannot stop the tears.
To hear this tragic news about you,
Was one of my biggest fears.
I always hoped you would be back,
But reality has hit me with a smack.
You were a great friend with a huge heart,
Though we lived oceans apart.
You always did your best,
And now you are at rest.
Fun, happy, kind and true,
I will never forget you.
Though my heart may not fully mend.
Rest In Peace my dear friend.
