March 5, 2015
I heard you were dying,
and started to cry.
I put pen to paper,
but the ink, it ran dry.
No words could I find,
that suited the bill.
Then a blot on the page,
from the tip of my quill,
appeared as I hovered;
my hand shaking above,
the final letter to you,
unwritten with love.
Then I came to my senses,
and words started to flow.
I remembered the people
we both used to know,
and the schooldays we spent,
all came flooding back;
Like when we played netball,
and you were goal attack.
I thought you the smartest
achiever in school,
whilst us lot were clowns
who acted the fool.
I then abandoned the letter;
don’t ask me why?
I suddenly felt the urge,
to say a personal goodbye.
So I raced to your bed
in haste, I do swear;
only to find a new patient,
now lying there!
Forgive me, dear friend,
for it wasn’t to be:
The last time I didn’t see you,
will stay long with me!
