Safe Passage

The sad news
unwanted always
reached my ears
a bit late.
Part of me refused to hear
that you are now gone.

As you go
from this existence
to the next
remember
you are missed by me often
and thought of fondly.

I am sad
but that is my lot.
Sad for me
not for you.
For you I feel happiness
your pain is now gone.

Go with pride
into the next life
travel free
of concern.
We will meet in the future
our friendship transcends.
