To my moms best friend, my second mom, my bestest friend. May your soul rest in peace.

 The black glass

on the lonesome bridge

took another life.

 

A life I loved 

for all my life

and to this bitter day.

 

My mom, my aunt, my sister

my friend

she was closer then all.

 

Spun out of control 

into the other lane

a semi that couldn't stop.

 

My heart skipped a beat 

when her heart stopped that day

on that lonesome bridge.

 

Her open arms would take me in

with every time she saw me

I couldn't help but smile.

 

Now shes gone

a voice in the wind

a memory in my heart.

 

The black glass 

on the lonesome bridge 

has taken the life from me.

This poem is so heartfelt ... I got tears in my eyes while reading it. It feels wrong to say that this is a nice poem, but it is. It is written with love, more than grief.
I'm sorry for you loss, for what you had to go through to write this.

This is beautiful. Such a tragedy, but so much beauty along the way. Pain is clearly felt here, but made so beautiful that it takes away a bit of the sting. I can imagine a bridge covered with ice, bloodied by death. You don't write simply about loss here, because there are so many other emotions felt as well while reading. I really enjoyed this.

I'm very sorry for your loss.
