Raven

Sweet Raven of the Midnight Moon return to us with grace.
Return to us your beauty so we may see your gorgeous face.
Come back to us, my Raven, for we love you in our core
And wish you to return to us so we may be with you once more.

You lied for me, your cried for me, and how I miss you so;
All of us who loved you did not wish for you to go.
Come Heaven, Hell, Devil, or God; you were with me through them all
But never did I wish for it to cause you, my dear, to fall.

Amanda thought you as a sister and a wife and friend in dear
But your dying day to come was precisely what she feared.
She cared for you intensely with all her heart and soul
But now her heart is broken now that your body's cold.
She misses you so deeply far beyond what words can say
And now that you are gone her heart is now set in dismay.

Nicole, your one true sister and your darling friend of night
Was here for you through everything to help you with your fight.
She promised you she'd be there just as a true sister should be
And there she was, as promised, for everyone to see.
From Motoko's drug abuse to the cheating of Sarina,
She was and always will be there for her darling Sarafina.

And finally your newest friend with whom you left your will;
Your newest sister Abby who's faith is sweet and still.
She hardly even knew you still attached to you she was
And love you just as anyone who knew you just because
Your never ending faith within your friends and Goddess, too,
Told them you'd always be there even if it meant your doom.

You told us not to lament upon your coming dying day
But I only wish you knew how things will never be the same.
Forever you will be missed from now forever on
All because not one of us can believe you're really gone.

    Oh, gosh. I have never lost someone to suicide, but I feel your pain. This was the best poem I've ever read on suicide. Of all the hundereds of poems on death and dying that fill this site, this wasn't like the rest of them. What a great tribute to a friend. God bless you with your troubles,
    Captain Redd

      Thank you for your kind words, friend. I just figured that a typical poem just refering to what happened wasn't going to cut it in this case so I wrote it like I was speaking to her herself. I just hope she heard it. Thank you for your kind words, friend. May Goddess' grace shine down upon you.
