Check on your Strong Friends

One day they’re going to be gone

It will seem completely unexpected

You’re going to be devastated

Then you’re going to be filled with rage 

There were no warning signs

You will find yourself repeating “they seemed fine”

Others will say “I can’t this is real”

They were always so strong

Always a shoulder to lean on

Someone you would open up to so freely

They listened

They actually heard what you were saying

They gave such great advice

You knew that their life was difficult

They always rolled with the punches

Their laugh will haunt you

A laugh that could ignite a room 

Bring everyone together

Not everyone is that funny

They had to be happy

You’re sure

All smiles 

Humor 

Strength

So strong

You never saw it coming

Now that they’re gone.
