Yvonne
THIS IS FOR THE GIRL I ONCE KNEW,
HER FRIENDSHIP WAS SOLID, FIRM, AND TRUE.
I WAS PROUD TO HAVE HER AS MY FRIEND,
AT THE BEGINNING, UP TO THE END.
HER PASSING GRIEVES US ALL AND TAKES IT’S TOLL,
A VOID IS LEFT THAT IS LARGER THAN THE BLACK HOLE.
I FAIL TO UNDERSTAND WHY IT HAD TO BE,
BUT THE COMFORT I TAKE IS THAT SHE WILL ALWAYS BE NEAR ME.
IN MY HEART AND IN MY MIND,
CLOSE MY EYES AND IN THE MEMORIES I WILL FIND.
WILL BRING A SMILE UPON MY FACE,
PRAYING NOW SHE IS IN A BETTER PLACE.
YVONNE MY TRUSTED AND LOYAL FRIEND,
IN THE BEGINNING UP TO THE END.
THIS GOOD-BYE I SAY IS WITH ACHING HEART,
WHERE DO I BEGIN, HOW DO I START.
MAY GOD BLESS AND LOOK AFTER YOU,
MAY YOUR ETERNAL HOME BE ALL THAT IS TRUE.
KNOW THAT YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOT,
IN MY MIND AND IN MY THOUGHT.
IF I SHED A TEAR FOR THIS AWFUL LOSS,
IT’S BECAUSE I REMEMBER HER AS SHE WAS.
A CHEERFUL LOVABLE LAS THAT SHE WAS,
SHE WAS MY FRIEND AND I WAS HER BOSS.
