Void

you died

I cried

for your songs would never more be new

upon this earth

and for those, like I, that loved you

who now were left alone

one has said of you

“nobody on the planet

wrote songs like he did…

we’ve lost one of the only true poets”

what more could be said of you

other than

in this life you walked with God

and now

though we feel it far too soon

you walk with God

in His life

On the loss of Rich Mullins
