By the Way, He's Gone (Diminished Hexaverse)

What madness is this? Could you not resist~ Such a blow carried Hard pressed on mine ears As tapped without fist I need not hear Your words again Give me time, now To absorb them 'Tis not -- our first-- greeting Such an end… We’ve lost One more Friend…

So sorry for your loss if this is true. I read this a few times, and though it is sad, it is really quite an excellent write. You used this form of poetry so well. Love, Shar
