The wind

The music played on

Dear Steve

I cried when I heard you died

Not even a year since being a groom

Your bride shook at the viewing, I watched in silence

Feeling her pain

Months before

You had shared with me , your love story

I had smiled, assuming

kindness would bring kindness

And you would experience love , for years, in it's glory

I know you were not unnerved

That you would feel that God had a reason

but I still can not find an answer

Why you two can not be dancing on this earth

To continue your new life with you virgin wife

To have the joy you deserved

Sincerely, Your sad friend

Antoinette
