Epitaph for a Friend

Too many questions

Too little time

So many mountains

So hard to climb

The tears and the laughter

Forever live on

No one can replace you

Twenty years gone

Nobody knows

All the things you went through

Nobody knew me

Better than you

Time may have passed

But the memories are strong

I miss you tonight

Twenty years gone

I’ve built my defenses

I’ve put up a wall

The summer’s behind me

I welcome the fall

I’ve had a good life

But tonight I’m alone

I love you, my friend

Twenty years gone
