Poem

I sit by your photograph

day after day

Our friendship, timeless

as it was always framed.

While rotten remainders

still weep from your grave

Behind this glass wall

rests an ageless face.

The watch that you wear

is now strapped to my wrist

Synchronistic reflections

A past

dearly missed.

Oh my photograph friend

I'm right here by your side

'til fate joins us again

in our heavenly rhyme.
