I wept when I heard of your passing, couldn't stop
A young intelligent soul gone just like that, was a pity
Why wasn't it me instead?
You came into my dreams one night when I thought I had forgotten
Made me reminisce about you again
And recall your existence once more
Vividly enough to etch your memories in my mind
Enough to scar your name against my skin
I hope to remember you despite the distance
And yet is it wrong for me to want to be able to let go and move on...

- Comment from author about the poem: I lost a group mate in 2018. I was not that close to him but still broke down upon the news. He was intelligent and I am sure he would have had a bright future ahead of him. In 2020, he appeared in my dreams which made me remember him again and determined to do so every year. I decided to try to pen it into a piece of writing. I would love to have some advice, thank you!
