Final moments
You becoming the wind
As you always were
I miss you and you're still here
Still
You are still
Still but still warm
Still living in my heart but still
Your glassy eyes glaze over
Forever the wind only
I can't let go of you
Sympathetic faces surround me
For hours I can't stop sobbing
I silently sob myself to sleep
My friend tries to understand
I cry myself to sleep for two weeks
I see you everywhere still
You disappear before I can reach you
My tears engulf me
My best friend is dead
Except in me
I will never let go
I remember...
Euphorically galloping
The world blurs
The wind in my face
Grapevines slapping my eyes
And the beneficial sting
The realization I live and
I love too much to fit in me
So here is your share
As we gallop down the hill
We blur together
Our souls as one...
We flew together
Now you rest your wings
I will see you again in
Our next life
