The email he has received today is marked urgent. But it's from a friend who died two years ago.
In the quiet hours of the morning, his inbox pinged,
A notification demanding attention, urgency it brings.
With trembling hands, he unlocks his device,
To find a message marked "urgent" from someone no longer in this life.

His heart skips a beat as he sees the sender's name,
A dear friend, departed, yet somehow here again.
Confusion swirls in his mind like a tempestuous storm,
How could this be? His friend had passed on, to where souls transform.

With hesitant fingers, he opens the email with care,
Each word a dagger, piercing through the layers of despair.
It's as if time has stopped, frozen in its tracks,
As he reads the message from beyond, a surreal and haunting fact.

The words on the screen blur through tears of disbelief,
A flood of memories crashing like waves, causing him grief.
Two years have passed since his friend's untimely end,
Yet here they are, reaching out from the beyond, a message they send.

The email speaks of longing, of unfinished tales,
Of regrets and apologies, of love that never fails.
It's as if his friend's spirit has found a way to communicate,
Across the chasm of death, bridging the gap between fate.

He struggles to comprehend this ethereal connection,
As emotions cascade, overwhelming in their reflection.
The email is a lifeline, a bittersweet embrace,
From a friend he thought he'd lost, now present in this cyber space.

He types a response, his fingers shaking with emotion,
Pouring out his heart, expressing his deepest devotion.
Though they may never meet again in the flesh,
Their bond transcends mortality, in the digital mesh.

As he hits send, a sense of closure washes over him,
A fleeting moment of peace, amidst the chaos and din.
For even in death, their friendship endures,
A timeless connection, forevermore
