Memory Lane
how can you be gone
when WE were meant to grow old,
i now walk alone
when WE were meant to grow old,
i now walk alone

My dearest Tommy,
Sometimes I am just fine, then sometimes I am not.
I cried today, you know how I am...
I can't help it, it hurts.
Something inside me just doesn't comprehend
that I will never see you again.
The kid I grew up loving...gone.
Forever.
Even though it cuts me now,
thank you for letting me go when I needed to grow
and for always being my friend.
I wish I could have saved you from that end.

Dear PS,
Your sorrow is palpable in the poem. Your authors note is a poem in itself. I’m sorry for your loss. Your love for your friend is a true homage. H🌷
