Aww this is so sad, some of the lines really hit home for me I guess. I think this was just so beautiful, your lines were powerful with emotion. Although someone has left us that doesn't mean we have to let them go, or push them away. I absolutely adored the lines of which you said they stayed long enough to define life for you. Amazing. I really preferred the last few stanzas over the first few, but you did a great job overall!
