She called me
and told me the grimness
My dad's best friend had passed
in a tragic accident
We were doing laundry
A normal day suddenly turned dark
Told him the sadness
and he was speechless
Not in a million years
he thought it was Patrick
He went silent
with a haunted look
Accepting and rejecting
at the same time
His best friend
had shuffled off
this mortal coil
and everything
was different now
I watched him walk away
and I suffered with him
He still suffers for his friend
but he celebrates Patrick's life
every moment he gets.
He keeps Patrick's memory alive
like a true best friend
Never to be forgotten
Always in my dad's heart
Always and forever
