In Loving Memory of My Friend
By: Toni Whisenant
Behold! my dear friend
You have left me this day.
My tears come flowing
For you have flown away.
Though you are much better
In a place with no pain
I never said good-bye
To your beautiful face.
You always made me happy
When I was depressed.
You made me laugh
When I was a mess.
You made me smile
When I thought of death.
And you brought me sunshine
When I lived in darkness.
Behold! my dear love,
You have left me to fend
Just for myself,
Tonight was your end.
I think of you always.
Your memory shan't end.
You're in my heart forever.
Death is not your dead end.
You've left us alone, my friend.
You left us in dire need
Of your genius mind
And your generous thoughts, indeed.
We loved you with all our hearts
Because you were amazing.
With blood-shot eyes, I sit here and cry
For your death won't be your last deed.
