A Friendship Even Death Could Not Break

A Friendship Even Death Could Not Break

Snow filled

The sky that

Day

White snow

Dotting the landscape

Turning

The world white

Appropriate

For that was

The day I

Had learned

You died.

Best friends

No sisters really

Blood doesn’t

Define family

Sometimes it’s those

People God

Puts in our lives

The ones you look

At

And say

“Oh you,

Me too.”

And the stories

Flow out

Like water

From a

Water spout.

I knew

On that Chilly

Snowy

February day

Before the words were

Even said

That you were

Gone.

Deep down

I knew each day

Was a gift
