Those we knew

When can mourning and living reconcile?
That is up to you.
You think you will be here for the end,
but along comes a cancer
and the end comes too soon.
A sound.
A vision.
A feeling.
These things will last.
A soul quietly exiting,
pauses,
smiles and gives a thumbs up.
Wherever the soul’s destination,
it will be a better place.
We’re put here for a reason.
Its up to us to realize it.

The toughest thing to do is to care.
