Escape at last, my friend -
though beyond my reach
still within the very hum
of a life once in tune
The very presence of your absence
a companion to my mourning
lost in the gray of sadness
the vibrant colors of memory
Profoundly sad and truly lost
the loved ones walk the day
searching for the answers
far too difficult to say
To dream...
To find those yesterdays
on which to base tomorrow's
song
Sleep well, brother.

a poignant tribute. So sorry for the loss.
This was so beautiful and heartfelt...I have a lump in my throat. Thank you for sharing your words.
Beautiful tribute!
I think you found the song in this. Prayers for you.
Thanks, guys. It's been a difficult week and I struggled to find words in general. The prompt allowed me a starting point for an outlet. Peace. --larry
it is amazing how the loss of a loved one fills us with an unbearable emptiness and then the moments start to pass without our permission and we remember everything about them... a beautiful poem...
A poignant tribute. Beautifully written.
Wow Larry. That was quite a beautiful tribute. My sincere condolences on your loss.
I'm so sorry for your loss, this was beautiful.
