I remember you planted the flowers
outside our childhood home
and added earth and sunshine
so they were not alone
I remember the man you grew into
before the suffering took hold
and how our paths crossed once again
when you and I were old
I remember a time that I loved you
when you and I were young
and how our lives are different
now the bells of death have rung
I remember at your funeral
playing "Thank you for the days"
and feeling that if only
you had changed your reckless ways
I remember scattering ashes
on the very earth you laid
back outside our childhood home
where our destiny was made
