Cancer: The loss of a friend

Location

Who knows why we are chosen,

Sometimes friends are chosen too.

I don’t understand how it's decided,

But he only took you.

 

The first time around,

We both made it through.

The second time around,

I will heal but your time was due.

 

I am devastated by our loss,

My heart is filled with remorse.

I feel guilty to be here,

But the loss of your life will make me fight with force.

 

I want you to know,

The impact you have made.

Our love and honor for you,

Will never fade.
