A letter to the Departed

It's been 3 years.

3 years we haven't heard your voice,

Seen your face, laughed with you.

You lived one month in the new year,

3 years ago, before you decided

Life wasn't getting any better.

 

I thought remembering you would get hard,

But I've never done anything easier.

I remember the dream I had after you left,

You had come back for just one day,

To say your farewells and make amends.

 

I hope I never forget that dream.

 

Well Martin, you're not forgotten, you're still missed, you're still loved. I hope your at peace.

 

 

-Your Friend
