A Song for Marlowe

Bittersweet

We chanced to meet

No point in asking why.

I’m sure you’d say

A better day

Awaits you when you die.

 

You’re here; you’re gone.

We’ll carry on.

We have no other choice.

The house is still

A bitter pill

To never hear your voice.

 

Bittersweet’s

No trick-or-treat.

I know it’s time to go.

But what we’d pay

For you to stay.

Dear God, we’ll miss you so!
