DEATH

I finished writing my story ten long months ago now

Started to write it before Christmas 2012

Re-contacted the Church the end of May of last year

And this morning awoke to his passing…

 

How should I feel? Life gets in the way

Grief surely, I feel it deep in my soul

This man formed quite a part of my life long ago

But I know that others will show surprise at my reaction…

 

His journey is ended, but mine continues on

Resolution opaque, not quite within my grasp

Regardless, I wish him well, his God he will meet

Heaven’s doors open wide to receive him…

 

He will confess and find peace, of that I am certain

The Almighty is merciful and forgiving we're taught

Closure will remain elusive, for me a revolving door

My only regret, we hadn’t resolved this while he was still living.
