Poem Title:
Poem
I pass by your house almost everyday And yet I try and stay out of your way But today wasn’t the same Instead out by the water to sit I came Such a beautiful place to write The sun against water sparkles bright And though the memories remain With those I no longer feel any pain To look at your house my mom comes to mind And being here I've come to find Her memory comes back strong Stronger than it has in so long And as the sun beats down on me I think back to what we used to be I'm reminded of way back when And all the places that we'd been From Ohio down to the coast You know the one I remember most You gave me memories I'll never forget For that I'll be forever in your debt Though since then we've grown apart But in my heart You'll always hold a special place Even if I never again see your face I won't forget what we once had After all it wasn’t all bad We shared some really great times And I've created some pretty good rhymes I'm slowly becoming whole again No longer as broken as I was back then So as I leave this place today I'll wear a smile as I walk away Finally able to close the book No longer feel the need for one last look Even though my mom is gone A part of her still lingers on I hold it deep inside of me And the past I must let be Cuz being here won't bring her back And we both know that’s a fact But if there's one thing I can take from today It's that this girl right here will be okay In time I will find my way And there's nothing anyone can do or say Cuz I'm stronger than I ever knew And so much of that I learned from you!!!!
