Sinome
The very toughest part if life, to lose a close friend, I know, and you express it all so vividly

So beautiful!  Had to read it twice with tears in my eyes as I remembered special people who walked beside me through difficult and joyful days.  Awesome job!

Losing those friends never gets easy. There are many that I think about often and wondered what became of them.

Interesting metaphor of friend as firefly
though I couldn't help thinking of Groucho Marx' character in "Duck Soup", Rufus T. Firefly:

The firefly
Perhaps there is good news here Simone, the firefly is still out there. Sometimes things seem brighter by their absence and maybe they are. Lovely poem

Absolutely a gorgeous poem Sinome. The images of a firefly to light your friendship.

I don't know who the friend was
Marta, but they must have been  very special, and am sure would be proud of your depiction of your friendship. Very touching..
