Friendship Continues Even After Death Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Looking for your reflection in every window that I pass,
reaching out with my heart to feel your presence as I
walk by.

Nothing prepares me though, for the emptiness I feel,
tears escape with thoughts of you.

Where are you, where have you gone? Once so much a part
of my life and I yours, how could it all disappear like
this?

Knowing you has always been a great joy, being friends
was an even greater joy.

Our personalities met and meshed, leading us on to greater
experiences throughout our lives.

We've always been so very close, even when we were miles
apart, what happened to disrupt our lives so much?

Flowing behind, weeping willows weep for two friends, one
young, one old, parting at death's door.

Yet, in the sunshine from above, the hope of love glows
within two hearts, one alive, the other gone ahead to
heaven.
