The lines on his face told stories
For others

A different tale for each weathered
Mark

Tales of sadness greater than most
Tales of true heart wrenching love
He had committed some truly awful things
And witnessed worse
He'd also seen great kindness
And passed it on to others

The life of one is not made up of a
Single moment or act
But in many small meaningful ones

The many hearts this one man touched
Will be seen in his passing
Only then do we appreciate what
We've had.
