Elegy

Did you ever see me or could you even see at all

I looked at your cold white face, so still, so empty

Yet I knew you were at rest

Much more comforted than IWhat else could I find to replace who you were

It was the carefree unrestricted love that you never meant to give

You never had the choice

It was your innocenceIt was part of who you were

It was the comfort of a friend
