Within the aphotic recesses of my heart
Exists a place left torn apart
A hole my friend did occupy
My dearest friend too young to die
His memories float through my mind
But, memories are all I find
He is gone and I bereft
An empty space is all that's left
He is better off today
His pain and suffering gone away
Cancer can exact its toll
But, cancer can not take a soul
I wonder what he'd have to say
To hear me carry on this way
Yet, he is gone and I remain
With wounded heart and much disdain.

It is so very sad, no matter when any of our loved one passes... but of course when we feel them in their youth, we believe it seems unfair- it makes it even more difficult to understand. The human mid can not seem to process certain things as such...
this is a wonderfully written work of art in processing grief.
