Funeral

We have gathered here today

for the man that has been loved

but has never been in love.

 

Many have loved him over the years.

We all know about his immense amount

of great friendships

and the love he returned

to each of us individually.

 

He was a man that did not celebrate much.

But he shared his love to all of us every day.

Even though he was not in it himself.

 

We have gathered here today

to wish him a peaceful farewell

and hope that his powerful sense of love

can only be spread among us all.

 

Remember his love,

his being in the existence,

always loving and never being in.

A strong man with a heart torn,

but with that ache he delivered

his warmest love to us all.

 

Let us all gather around

this sad sight

and make our last respect

to a man that has redefined love

while searching all his life

to be in love.

 

We have gathered here today

for the man that has been loved

but has never been in love.
