Goodbyes somberly said
to grieve beloved dead
I imagine us resting beneath the trees
A solemn whisper of wisdom carried
On a frosted breeze
I can almost feel you beside me
I will always carry the love you bestowed inside me
I will always cherish you my dearest friend
and I know deep in my heart that we will meet again
I'll see you on the other side of the veil
Because of your faith in me I know I can prevail
Your eyes always held adoration in great supply
And your name means Jehovah Is Good, and that I'll never deny
My life was made worth living
By caring for you each day
I will carry on - with the love you left to guide the way.
- a poem for my dog Tobias who passed away on the second of January 2025.

My friend left in the middle of our conversation
I’ll never know what else he might have said
He was interrupted when telling his story

Who knows where else he may have led
A dear friend of mine passed away this past summer. It was really late at night and he was on his way home from a party. He and the friend he was with got mugged by three individuals when they were waiting for their next bus. The reason my friend is dead is he tried calling the police, the killer stabbed him in the chest and then the three of them ran away. He died outside of a McDonalds, while his parents were on vacation. He was only 18 years old. His name was Tobias. I loved him.

— The End —
