In the silence of night, a whispering grief,
A loss profound, beyond belief.
A bond unbroken, through joys and tears,
A friendship cherished, spanning years.
We danced in sunlight, laughed in rain,
Shared our hopes, shared our pain.
But in the shadows, unseen by day,
Your battle raged, slipping away.
I questioned, I doubted, I raged at the sky,
Why couldn't I save you? Why did you fly?
Through guilt-laden tears, I searched for blame,
But in the end, grief knows no name.
Your absence echoes in every space,
A void unfilled, a haunting grace.
But in memories sweet, you still reside,
Forever cherished, by my side.
Though you've left this earthly shore,
Your spirit lingers, forevermore.
In the tapestry of life, you'll always be,
My guardian angel, eternally free.
In the ink of life, a semicolon traced,
A symbol of hope, in grief embraced.
For in your story, though paused it may seem,
Your light still shines, like a guiding beam.
With each heartbeat, with each breath,
Your memory lives, defying death.
In the silence of loss, your voice is heard,
A reminder of hope, in every word.
So let the semicolon forever remind,
That love endures, transcending time.
In honor of you, I'll wear it with pride,
A symbol of hope, never to hide.
