SoulsGoodbye (for Fred)

The hardest goodbyes

Are those unsaid

Like being underwater

You never had

The chance because

He left too

Soon let your

Heart bleed now

For the dead

Can hear the

Souls silent weeping

ComeBack

And today you’re

Farther away than

Far heading west

Like the sun

Taking your warm

Glow with you

Moored here I

Call but you’re

On a journey

Of good byes

Say them and

Return to me

Like spring after

The winters deadness

LittleThings

It’s the little

Things the buttons

On your shirt

That challenge me

It’s your toothbrush

That I find

Looking for mine

It’s your side

Of the truth

Or the bed

It’s your shoes

That don’t fit

Me but everything

Else that you

Are fits fine

IWish (to Fred & Jay)

I wish

I wish that

I could carry

Away your pain

I wish

I wish I

Could tell you

That it’s okay

It’ll be better

I wish

I wish that

I was the

One for you

I was the

One that you

Picked rather than

Settled for and

I wish

I wish that

I’d never written

This for you

I wish

I wish that

Life’sPuddle (for Jay)

My dear boy

Your heart is

Breaking by loss

Everything begins and

Everything ends we

Often don’t splash

In the puddle

Of life thinking

That rain comes

But when it

Doesn’t and life

Dries up we

Cry grieve now

Knowing that love

Will fill your

Puddle and once

Again soon you’ll

Splash being silly
