GOODBYE, FRIEND






Drew

Good soldier
So proud
So sober
So spiritual
So sad

Ave Maria University
Mourning in the morning
We who stayed
To help others
Along their sober way

Asleep in car
Note in lap
That final goodbye
(Seems now so far)
To his friends, his Peeps.

Sleep in peace now my friend...
Drew
