Ode to my friends

My friends

Time running out

Tony Bray

I remember you when we were 12

Corfe Walk council house

Claudius Drive Private estate

You dated my sister and became my best friend, we shared so many times together. I remember leaving you at stanstead airport thinking it was the last time I was going to see you, but no! You were there the next time I fell down and messed up my life, you were there the next time I collapsed crying down the phone, you were there when you needed someone more than I needed someone!

What about Ralph Griggs? What about the time we stole, the time that we held the world to ransom, Asia, Marillion, we were in control, you were in control. What happened? Did we run out of time? was time stolen from you? It should have been taken from me, as I have done worse things in life than you.

Rob Lewis

What happened? you and I loved the man so much. that man was John Lennon. We competed on seeking his albums, Two virgins if I recall, shaved fish, The rock’n’Roll years were our years. The Select few with Brian Ebury and Matthew Pegg and Eddie Marco on Bass. I remember the time at the Caribbean club, supporting Jim Jiminee, jumping off stage in to the crowd. I remember your Sax, uber cool, uber not aware of cool.

Arrogant at first meeting, then I understood what it was all about, a brain tumor that was never to return, but it did return and meeting you at the ice rink that day and you telling me you weren’t going to have treatment, man that was hard, harder for you of course.

If anyone it should have been me that was taken, not you, I did far worse things in life!

Let me take your Tumour, Let me take your brain Haemorrhage, let me take your brain tumour. Let me take it all, or shall I be the seed of life for you and tell the world all about you?

let me know one day.

love.
