A part of me went with you
When you took your life one day
Impossible to then accept
You couldn't choose to stay
Two decades passed and slowly
I have lived a life complete
But never was it easy to
Move on from your retreat
A part of me went with you
When you'd had enough and fled
No friends could ever comprehend
How this could be our Ed
Two decades passed and thankfully
Time tends to heal most pain
The good times overlapping bad
Fond memories remain
I hope you found the peace that was
Eluding you down here
That you embraced serenity
Cessation of your fear
Two decades passed and now I
Dedicate these prose to you
And those who end life much too soon
Before it should be through
Those left behind are grieving friends
And families helpless, lost
Confused, bewildered, angry
As all logic just seems tossed
Two decades passed and nearly three
As time continues on
I cherish life with renewed hope
Still can't believe you're gone
