R.I.P dear friend

my job is very rewarding it has its ups and downs the best part is I get to meet amazing people. like this man who was the drivers ed teacher but the best part is he taught my mom to drive.

I don't know why?

but for some reason heaven only takes the best

I can't explain how much we laugh.

I can't explain how much we hug.

hearing stories older than us.

I don't know why?

it seems like so much.

yet remembering you

puts tears in my eyes, but a smile on my face

sometimes its hard to love someone

but yet when you let go you see it all

a man who had the strength

a man who gave his all

a man who had it all

I look upon this man

I see a warm embrace

a heart so full of life

but as I see him slowly stop answering are questions

I realize god has taken over and he must listen closely

for god has picked the most beautiful yet fragile flower

and now its time to say goodbye

because god has called upon him to return home

yet we love him so

yet this is how it must be

I don't know why?

but we will meet again

I just hope you remember me

not as your helper

but as a friend who helped you in a rough time

I don't know why?

but heaven became lucky

when they got you

Author's Note

this poem doesn't express him. it lets you see a part of me who doesn't understand god much. who doesn't know why things happen the way they do. I had this same talk with his son who swore to me that god would help me see it all. that's just what he did when he not only gave me a voice but the will to write to express the love I have inside. I know now why god took this man. I know why it seems so unreal a man who suffered so long to be given the chance to shed his love to someone who was lost and that my friend is me.
