For the love of Gwen

Don't be sad
for me
I'm finally free-
My demons
no longer haunt
my every day-
-
I can breathe
again-
No more voices
in my head
shoving me under water-
-
This life is hard
the struggles are real-
Really love
one another
before that chance
is gone-
-
I have felt
True, pure love
through my family-
through my friends-
for that
I now rest peacefully-
-
And I live on-
Through so many
random strangers
that now
call me their own-
My final gift
to this world-
-
So, don't be sad
when my
favorite song
is played-
Or a time
Or a place
brings me to
your mind-
I'm right here
always-

This was written for a friend of mine whose sister in law passed recently. She had a life long struggle with alcohol and it finally killed her. She was 43. She also was an organ donor so they were able to harvest for others in need.
