On Losing A Friend

A friend so close, a friend so dear

Has been taken away from me for sheer

Never had I though my eyes would witness one day 

My friend lying on the ground, without a say 

I wonder, wonder how is this possible

A sight so bizarre, a sight so surreal

Ahead of my eyes, drowned in tears 

A sight that besieged everyone in dismay not so mere 

I stood rigid, stiff and still 

A sense of melancholy soaked me in itself

Trapping me deeper in a realm of desolation 

Piercing needles of lugubrious ness like a biting snake 

As I watched the disdain grow darker 

I was overwhelmed by thoughts 

Taking me to my past

To the days of infinite happiness, unforgettable memories and priceless moments 

Why? Why did this have to happen?

The fun, the joy shared together

Have now faded

Blurred.
