60 days and counting...

Forged in blood over 20 years ago we had a friendship that could not be broken.
Until the night you took your life, reminding me it had been 6 months since we'd spoken.
Decades later you still visit me to help me relive our past.
Stalking peaceful moments, making sure I don't relax.
Tormenting me with visions of death and what monsters we'd become.
Cementing the fact I have no place of safety in which to run.
A moment of reprieve...
Or so I thought, 60 days without a requiem.
My defenses were down, You came back around, why can't you stay out of my dreams?
I'm looking through tear filled eyes trying to write this for some peace.
For its the only thing that soothes my soul to help me get to sleep.
I don't look forward to seeing you again, though I love you more than words can say.
But respectfully, you know, it was your choice to take your life that day.

1 hour and counting...
