FLY

FLY

(Tribute to my friend Steven Weston)

Together we share good times through laughter

And eat in the presence of each other.

You walk by my side dear friend

And offer an ear to the ridiculous. 

I listen to your earnestness with acceptance

But am ignorant to hidden despair 

And secret sadness.

If only your heart was not so heavy

Perhaps Life would still be in the body.

In this mortal world 

I never said I love you

But now in your freedom

This may be known.

So fly the same way a bird does with winds and currents

Until Light dawns upon your destiny.

All refuse to speak in past tense 

Let fond memories continue our existence
