My Friend

He began his journey
             To eternity
For us
   another page to turn
   a grain of sand through the hour glass
We are left behind
   to feel the pain and enjoy memories
In this world of emotion
    I ask myself
    is this the heaven I thought?
For
    I see,Feel Taste and love
But now
    I see what is missing
    I feel the pain
    I taste the bitterness of lose
    I love one that is gone
    I answer my own question!
For
    I grew with him
    I talked and cried with him
    I lived with him
    I saw him in Love and Pain
My heaven holds many mysteries
    Heaven on earth

Dedicated to Ruben Martinez more then a friend
