Strangers

For all of us
In memory of Pieter-Jan †02 March 2009

Strange, the speed of your departure here
The sudden silence of your presence everywhere
Your face in every task now failing to complete
And endless questions why and how and fear

We hardly stopped and said hello
Like how and who and what's your favourite beer
We must have thought: there's urgent business now, I need to go
I'll see you in a week or in a month or so
