20th February 2019
I have no words here, only thoughts. Grief is sporadic - a cord of knots That runs between my fingertips - Just when I think the sorrow's gone I catch a snag, but I still hold on. There was so much we didn't say, But time marched onwards anyway. There was so much still left undone, But life was ready to move on. Each breath you took was taken well And those you leave behind can tell That good intentions paved the path you roamed Until your brave feet took you home. You will be missed, your absence felt. You played the hand that you were dealt And in the wake of warmth your brought There is no words now, only thoughts.
