I've known you for a long time
short fiery tempered
yet gently cool
and you often made me feel at home
accepted me
this country ass light skinned black man
who often behaves more like a kid.
Your daughter is equally cool.
The vampire fanatic that she is
and I used to always bug her about those crazy fifty shades movies she liked.
Always hated that you and "The Ninja" didn't get along
and that your boss seems to have it in for me
But you saw me at so many stages of life
ups and downs
always listened to me
then I hear last week you'd passed on from this plane.
You won't be just another face to fade from memory
Despite everything and a slight language barrier
you were my friend.
Candi.
(After I wrote this touching tribute I come to find out it was your husband who died and not you. I guess this is what happens when you are not bilingual)
