Remembrance

Dearest Mark ,
Thirty five years ago you left us to soon. You were 24 and i was 20. I talked to you on the phone right before you left us. I got the phone call and was devastated.  I spoke with your mom, she really wanted me there but I couldn't come. You've been around me lately.  I don't understand why but I'm not complaining.   Your birthday is coming up. I'm having a bit of a hard time right now. The memories are flooding back of our time together and I remember them fondly. I hope you're at peace and watching over me. I'm glad we got to speak before you were gone. I know you loved me as much as I loved you. There is so much I don't understand but that's ok. You have come to me multiple times in the beginning after you were gone and you can come visit again. You'll always be a part of me, but I think somehow you know that. I don't have to tell you what my heart feels. I'm still sad but you live on.
Rest well my love. You're so missed by so many but none more than me.
My love always. I hope we meet again someday.
