remembering luke

a smile shared was all it took
and we shone
we took on the world puke and it might not seem it
but we won
waking to an uneasy life
we loved - we never stopped loving
when the world was against us - we believed.
your death does not take you from this world
it just brings you back closer to our earth
back closer to all you loved
and back closer to what together we strove to protect.
i'm as here for you today as i always have been
you are as much a part of me as you were yesterday.
we don't need spoken words puke
i can still hear you.

love cannot be taken xx
