&quot;Sleep. Those little slices of Death: Oh how I loathe them...&quot;<br /> &quot;I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity...&quot;<br /> &quot;Deep into that darkness peering long I stood there. Wondering...Fearing...Doubting...&quot;<br /> - Edgar Allan Poe


He leaned down
Putting his lips to my ear
I saw the wisdom and experience in his eyes
The wrinkles on his aged face
The hard work on his worn calloused hands
He whispered words I had never heard
"Your amazing"
I opened my eyes
He was gone
Now it was only a fuzzy memory

This was a memory of my 70 year old best friend who tragically died a couple months after the memory was made.
