Memoriam

Precious one, a life so young
Never thought life would take this long
Enjoy the life beyond
and never forget our bond
You withered away to the shore
a life we could both have lived to the core
gone; you still left your footprint
Thanks for the offer of a little glint
All this not in vain
as your blood flows through my veins
sometimes I call out to thee
but a grave come voice answers me

Although you hadn't had enough
enjoy your life beyond.
