You left without a whisper
You left without a goodbye
My friend Kevin, I will miss you.
I hope you have found a better place in the sky.
For god forgives us all.
He takes us home back to his heart
To wonder in the garden and
to finally find peace.
From the bottle I watched you fight,
toward a lighter life,
a journey that was much to short.
And on your path
we did cross many a time with a laugh.
In my heart you will remain.
As merories filter there will be
a smile tainted with pain.
Forever you shall remain in my heart,
as shall your home be in heaven.
This poem is in memory of my friend
Kevin who made me laugh so many times.
He passed away on May 21,1999
while in the service of his country.
I pray that God will watch over him well
