Tuesday 8th April

AT THE SETTING OF THE SUN:
 
As I rode the train out of the city last night
surrounded by tired faces, knees squeezed against 
one another, bags & lap tops piled on legs & 
fast food snacking mouths imbibing coffee hits to 
make it home awake, I watched the sun set on another 
day. A day in which a 25 year old had woken up but 
hadn’t made it to sunset – a tragedy beyond. 
A mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister gone. 
No parent should ever have to bury their child. 
Our thoughts fall miserably short in support of 
a dear friend as the sun rises on just another day.
