FUNERAL FOR ONE

 

 

Life is lived to its fullest having friends whom last a lifeti

The people you meet along the street, throughout school and beyond.

Co- workers known for such a long while, do you make them laugh and smile,

What mark, what lasting Impression will you leave upon the world.

Will their be those whom will really care enough to be there for those moments,

We always hope that family is the most important of all from beginning to end.

The sad fact being that a lifetime can add scars and create a wedge between,

At times family and friends may unfortunately drift apart and not return.

Sometimes we do make amends before in our lives too late it is,

That’s not always the reality of things as regrets are for everyone.

If it’s not to late then visit, call on the phone, don’t die alone,

This is not the way you should go away, not a send off for you,

Funeral for one is not much love shown for anyone.

  1. This is so true, yet sometimes impossible…I have said a final goodbye to all of my long time friends, family parents and one sibling gone, age does this to many. Yet, I find comfort in knowing so many wonderful people who follow my blog and I hope my legacy will be in the books that I publish. Thank for sharing such a personal note. Ann
