Gone Away Friends

Today I was told my friends went away.

To a better place, a new home.

One of only love and no worries and no

pain, or hate to hinder them.

Today I was told that they went away.

Taken against their will, by others

evilness. Taken in a horrible way.

Today I hold a yellow rose, in their

memory and will keep a candle lit in

my heart, for eternity.

Today many tears and sorrow cross the

land. Great empathy is shared by many.

But I must remember, they still live.

Their bodies are gone away, but as long

as we hold them dear, their spirit will

live on.

So I sit here writing these words. Trying

to reach many to hold memory. Take a

yellow rose, encase it with your love, light

a candle in your heart, for eternity.

Then they will live on, in spirit.

I know this does not ease the pain, only

my way of showing my love to them, and

holding them in my heart.

So take this little poem, with the yellow

rose and remember what it stands for.

Let it stay for eternity this way.

God Bless and keep you my gone away

friends.
