A Tribute To My Murdered Friend

I would love you till the end I would never be able to comprehend Why your destiny had to meet such a drastic end But as your friend, I would give you a warm parting Letting the world know that your departing Would be the starting of women recognizing That love is not painful nor is it wasteful Love is kind it's beautiful and faithful Its not hateful nor is it fatal or distasteful Love is grateful, pleasant and graceful Love is loyal and it's gentle not brutal or bloody Love is patience and its forgiving Love never fades away with time It’s stable and everlasting Love is the healer of all time It should not give anyone the reason To commit any sort hideous crime Love is gentle and kind It is meant to be the healer of our time It’s not devised to be cruel or unkind How I wish for your sake, I could reverse back time Giving you a reason to make up your mind To ask God for a little more time For you to recognise and change The things that caused you hurt and pain But you are not fully to be blamed Nor should you in death walk around in shame For no one had foreseen that your death Would have made it into the social media wall of fame You are not to be blame Farewell my friend R.I.P, I hope in this lifetime your soul Will travel throughout time Finding peace in this lifetime.
