You left so quickly. I didn’t have time to say goodbye and, in my misery and grief, I nearly lost you. But your voice permeates my dreams. The sound of your laughter echoes in my memory. Those idiosyncracies that used to wear thin are now the moments I cherish the most.
A rider may have fallen, but the ghost of you still navigates those winding curves in my memory. You will never cease to exist and, although I may have thought you were gone, you will always live on because I choose to remember you.
I hear your distant cry.

Awwww, so sad
I was having a melancholy moment.
Beautiful – Regards Sir
wow, really beautiful.
I felt like I knew these words…but it was only past grief from lost friends…you used the lyrics so beautifully…quite a lovely tribute.
Thank you so much.
It was well deserved…thank you for writing.
So beautifully sad. The final line is a killer but I love the one about “the ghost of you”. Great 100.
