Goodbey At A Funeral Poem by Carin Van Der Merwe

As we look up at the sky…
You wonder our minds …
Tear by tear, we start to cry
Because you left us behind…

We are hurting so badly
That our hearts are in pain
you disappeared so sadly
but we will see you again

Maybe if we paid more attention
we would have seen your hidden intentions
We could have convinced you to stay
We are angry at ourselves for believing your words
‘I’m fine’
And not digging deeper
Not seeing your pain

We wish you would first have shouted
Instead you decided to hide
Maybe your head was to crowded
Thinking of where to thride
We would have helped you
You just needed to talk…
instead you desided to walk

Now we have to be strong and move on my friend
but, you'll always live on in our hearts
and we’ll always remember you in the end
Your loving golden heart
You were our friend from the start

And as we look at the sky for so long
It’s hard for us to let you go
More…
We wish for you to be with us
But you can't, because you're gone

You've grown your angel wings, and flew…
but your memories will still live on

As we wipe our tears
Each one especially for you
Remember we love you
Our friendship for you...

Will always be true! ! !

Thank you Rick, it was a pleasure knowing you! !
