As I entered the room and walked over to where you were I could feel everything inside of me stop at once. Between the look across your face, and the silence in your disposition I could tell you were gone. Then I looked around the room, and saw happiness, and I was angry with the world. This is not a time to rejoice, this a time of anger and depression. I saw everyone talking and laughing, some in tears but only temporarily. "Won't you shed even one tear?" I wanted them to be just as angry as I was, just as upset and bitter. But then as I looked back upon you, I realized what I had overlooked. For once in my life, this was a time to celebrate the past. For the past is usually something to leave behind, and move on to the next day. Yet, this was the exception. Today was a celebration of life, of your life and for me, their past.
RIP we'll miss you
