Forever There

A poem I write after a close friend died.

Those we love don’t go away
But stand beside us,
Come what may.
Like guardian angels
They shield us away from the bad
And comfort us from afar
Whenever we’re sad.

And though we may not see them again,
We can feel their wings as they keep the rain
From falling so heavily into our eyes
From the always overcast grey skies.

So you see now;
Death can never part
The bond shared by two kindred hearts.
