My Best Friend: In Memory Of Terry Johnson Beloved Father, Husband, And Son. Poem by Dalton J Brown II

You died Jan.26,1996.
On that day, time had no begining and no end.
I never knew what a friend meant until then.
That accident should have never occurred.
Looking back now it all seems so blurred.

I wish that we all could have been together
on that day. You, Dayna, Denise and myself.
Laughing and joking in our usual way.
I often think about you and see your million
dollar smile. I think of the day when we will
meet again. Until that day comes, farewell
My Best Friend.

We never know the cards we are dealt.
When a loved one's eyes in death are closed,
How deep the hurt, God only knows;
For we're never really quite prepared...
To release the one whose life we've shared.
Birth is a beginning and death a destination.
Life is given and taken at some unknown time.
Your time came too soon.
