letter to my  friend

 hi and i hope all is okay
 wherever you are you
 probably know there's still
 no cure for HIV and quite
 
 frankly i know it's not
 humanitarian of me but i
 don't keep track of those
 medical meanderings since
 	
 you died i'm very angry about
 that and the way you left
 us without saying goodbye
 has me depressed now i'm
 
 wondering where i should
 store what i remember about
 your good person heart and
 the fun we had i'm wondering
 
 if you miss us as much as
 we miss you and how you 
 think we should proceed now
 without you since you've gone
 too soon before your sundown
