in loving memory

In the realm of sorrow, where shadows reside,
A painful truth unfolds, a friend's light subsides,
Lost to the depths, where darkness concealed,
Leaving behind a void that can't be healed.

The weight of silence, a heavy burden to bear,
As questions linger, suspended in the air,
Why did he choose to depart from this shore?
Leaving me shattered, longing for one moment more.

In memories' embrace, we seek solace's hand,
Recalling his laughter, the footprints in the sand,
But now his presence lingers as a bittersweet song,
Reminding me of a bond that's forever strong.

Grief, a relentless wave, crashes upon our shore,
Tears stream like rain, hearts broken to the core,
I grapple with emotions, too vast to contain,
Navigating a landscape where anguish and loss remain.

Yet within the darkness, a flicker of light,
A reminder that his spirit soars in infinite flight,
He may be gone, but his essence remains,
A flame of love that forever sustains.

In honor of his memory, we'll carry on,
Embracing his legacy, though they are gone,
Together, we'll share stories, laughter, and tears,
Keeping his spirit alive throughout the years.

And as we grieve the loss, we'll find strength anew,
Supporting each other as we journey through,
For in the face of tragedy, we'll rise as one,
Unyielding, resilient, our love will never be undone.

May his soul find peace in the vast unknown,
As I hold him close, even though he's flown,
In my heart, his presence will forever reside,
A friend lost to suicide, forever by my side.
