an especially beautiful day for
an exceptionally beautiful human being
but i feel like it wasn't your time yet
because i am not ready for this funeral
you could have been my best friend
i could have shed a few more tears
when you departed from us
when you went on your way
but you will spend my remaining years
as the humble and courageous
and mysterious figure i never really knew
you are a butterfly slowly floating away
the raindrop swept away with the flood
the tree lost in the green of the forest
the words we fumble with and can not say
you stood for everything
i wish i could be
having known you is
the pride i wear on my sleeve
from now until forevermore
from this breath until i breathe no more
