In Memoriam

A good friend of mine died today, 

and all I could do was cry.

my head accepts what my heart denies,

of what happen then, today. 

the bad news spreads, the tears flow down,

and prayers reach the skies.

for a much loved friend, child, brother and son,

a light for all to see. 

the wait was long, unending, unsure,

yet hope endured, forever strong

but our God’s great will is above our own,

and he took our friend to a heavenly home.

and we are left, to mourn and greive,

and yet rejoice at what our friend has gained.

but still we wish, with all our hearts,

that our good friend did not have to leave.

A very good friend of mine died today,

and all I could do was cry...
