My inspiration
has gone
left this earth
for good
yet I am still
inspired
for his spirit remains
pushing me onward
and when I am tired
grief overwhelms
my soul
and I feel as though I can't
carry on
he is there
for how can you mourn the loss of
an inspiration
when what you believe you've lost
has really just begun
to be found

This is inspired by a beloved teacher of mine who just passed away.
