Poetry: Life & death

"Time Heals?"

July 2nd, 1992. It's a date that will live in our memories forever.

The night we lost you.

The night one of the kindest people on this earth was taken away.

Violently.

Tragically.

Taken away.

So young and so full of life, you had such a bright, beautiful future.

But in one moment, you fell and our world was shattered forever.

An act of hatred aimed at an innocent man cost you your life.

Hard to believe that even after so many years, the pain is still real.

I wish I could have one more moment to tell you how much you meant to me.

You will forever be in our hearts and we will never forget you.

In loving memory of Mark Benton July 25, 1969- July 3rd, 1992.
