My dear old lover and friend I write this with tear filled eyes A broken and scattered heart I just heard the news of your passing I heard that you were violently torn from this earth You were not at fault You fell victim to senseless behavior My condolences are with your family And all those you held dear Including me I hope I'm deeply saddened by your sudden departure You deserved so much more I wish you had lived longer to realize your dreams But unfortunately you were called to the heavens I truly hope that you are in a better place I hope that you have found great peace Rest in eternal power and peace I am sorry you had to leave the world of the living so soon Gone but never forgotten Lost but never forsaken
