Speechless

I usually have words,
Words to say.
I usually can get things out when I pray.
I usually can make a joke and light up a room
But all I can say right now is that you left this world to soon.

You lit up my life in ways only God can understand
You were an angel, not mere human.
You always helped others when no one else cared
You always made yourself available when no one else was there.
When you sang and played guitar with me,
You looked so happy and free.
When I was scared and needed an ear,
You went out of your way to truly hear.
Many listen but most don’t hear
That was a gift, my dear.

I am thankful and honored you shared things with me
I got to hear what kept you in captivity.
Losing you is like losing a piece of my heart
I don’t even know where to start.
I wish I could have taken all your pain away
I am thankful that you let me lead when life was gray.
I miss you so much and it’s an ache in my soul
I just need you to know, I loved you so
Thank you for all you did for me
All the nights you listened to me go on endlessly
Thank you for the kindness you bestowed on me
You helped me see a lot of things that I had to learn to let be
I wish I could go back in time
I keep playing every conversation in my mind
I wish I could have done more
But for now I have to close that door
Rest in peace my precious friend
I believe in my heart we will meet again
Things will not be the same
And I am sure many want to take the blame
But you touched more people than you know
And I pray God told you that at heaven’s door
You were one of my best friends
And I will cherish you until the end
You were one of my best friends
And I will cherish you until the end.

To my dearest friend I will miss you so much

So sad, Sabina, I feel your pain in this heartfelt write, sometimes we lose loved ones and don't understand why, but in time understanding comes, if we are open to it. Loss is hard, glad you are finding release somewhat of the pain in poetry, keep it up, you're doing great!
