Remembrance

I wish I would have gotten to know you, I truly do. Wish I could have seen you ride around the cul-de-sac in your new bike, Birthday balloons would have surely drifted towards my yard on occasion. And that would have been okay. All of it. Running around, playing with grass, laughing like only little kids do.

No big words or metaphors needed. I met you for what seemed like two seconds. And then the next day, you were gone. Pried out of life's hands so suddenly, I wasn't sure how to react. When I arrived, you were no longer with us.

Dear, wherever you are, may the angels watch over you. Your departure was shocking. I'm still unsure how to react. Not sure I'll ever be. Rest in peace Matthew.
