A Kiss Upon Your Cheek

time 
to 
summon 
solitude. 
rest my tired soul. 
breaking down while the seasons change. 
weary my heart has been, an armor of strength I need.
the past is not the present and tears will not bring change, time to honor you and myself. 
a perfect flower I will place on your grave as a kiss upon your cheek, knowing you will still be by my side, you're forever watching me.

Oh Holly...my heart goes out to you. I have one daughter and the thought of anything ever happening to her drives me mad. A touching piece. If this is not fiction, may you find comfort in the memories! Hugs!
