Moments To Remember

I refuse to spend our last minute in grief so, (to remove this other visage threatening a takeover) I transpose over it your face with that gentle smile holding in contemplation, a curious child, me your face once ridged in sadness with an agony we carried together, and now as my face burns with a heart arched in sorrow, in the knowing yours now rests on heaven, I, am ever thankful but still need a moment to remember
