I found out you weren’t well the day I left
Sitting and taking in the sights, sounds, and smells
It was a day of anointing
And as you walked up
I said an extra prayer
I fought back tears
Saying hello to you that morning
Holding on to that moment
Wishing it wouldn’t end
I wasn’t ready knowing
It might be our last goodbye
Sitting and waiting to board a plane
Fighting back tears of memories
Thinking dammit
Why him, a gentleman with the kindness of souls
Why does it have to be anyone
You are, were, and always will be
Half of my favorite love story
I am thankful for a friendship I no longer have
But will always cherish
