SO THIS IS IT?

 
 
 
So this is it?
An entire life
summed up
in a few meager words
tucked away somewhere
lost in the middle
of the local newspaper.
So this is it?
Once a vibrant personality
now just a name etched
in stone.
That hardly shows any 'semblance
of the miracle that was you
or the relationship we knew
No passerby will ever know
what a name etched in stone
simply cannot show.
The son, the brother, the friend, the lover
The young man with ambition
yet not lacking compassion at all
It tells nothing about how I miss your voice
or your sweet contagious smile
Just merely there you were born
and you lived among us a while.
