Sometimes It Snows In May (In Memory of Yen Soh)

As I saw
The tiny cluster of clouds
That held some light
It made me hope
You might be safe again
Sound and found
But the sound of silence
Still pierces our ears
The world just feels a little harsher
Now that you’ve left it
And left us
I have run out of words
To match what we feel
And that screen of memories
Has been playing today
And all of them great
This bittersweet fateful taste
We will never forget your way
Cars like that don’t pass us every day,
And sometimes, it snows in May
