Regret

The deepest regret I have is losing dear friends
to the grave; friends who I would have
taken time to understand, love, and appreciate
their presence in my life. 

A condolence and memorial pages aren't
enough for me to cover for my absence
in their lives. Instead, a gap has been left
in my heart, only for them to fill the earth....

We must be thankful for the time we had, Teddy. It's always sad to lose someone we love but it is the cycle of life. Sad write, my friend!

True Daniel. Sometimes we feel as though we would do more for the people we lost too soon.... Thank you Daniel, for commenting on my piece!! ;-)
