| It's never "goodbye", it's "'til we meet again". I don't know how this works but I'm sure it wasn't supposed to be like it now is. Your troubled times are long past and maybe mine are starting up again, but Nick Cave once sang "Death Is Not The End" and that's how I keep your memory. Everyone's got their words of wisdom, for solace, for grace, but none speak as loudly as you lived. If we let things be it isn't to forget, but to accept that one day death will call whether we're ready or otherwise. If we let them be, are we inviting ourselves to be hunted, tormented? Or is the ghost benevolent? All these questions unfulfilled until after the fact. Be that as it may, I still look toward tomorrow's light shining on me, leading me on until we find out where and when we'll meet again. |
