The love, The hatred, Going in circles. Like a train on set tracks, Around and around.

There is no more pain, No more grief, Anger, Depression, Anxiety;

48 years of beautiful life, ended. 23 years of knowing you, ended. 13 years of caring for you,

The words spoken By them. Knowingly sly and spiteful. So cold. So calculated.

When you left, Your voice was always there. In the house, On the street. Everywhere.

Watching the world. Paper, Plastic, Celebrity, Religion.

Just a simple thank you. Thank you for guiding me. For always being there, waiting. Greeting me.

Venturing into the unknown. The mind stops, terrified. Yet; the heart pushes forward, ever curious and hopeful.
