There is a man in my life I've never met

but it feels as though I've known him

all along

he fills me up with joy

and his voice

makes me feel

more alive than I ever would think was possible.

he spoke about

love

peace

understanding

whilst being hated by the
government 

but loved by the
people
his wife
and friends

I will forever lament that I never really got to know
nor meet him

he will stay as always for me

a mentor  in life

      I love you John

'til the end of time
and an eternity after that.
