I Remember
I REMEMBER
Shadows have fallen
since I saw you last.
You were a cool drink
of quiet in this world of noise.
Inhabiting the still parts
of my soul.
Embers of your fire
still warms me.
Your life found eternity.
A life cut achingly short.
A stage without a closing act.
In the end, we are sand
in an ocean of men.
Waves on the water
that break
along the shore.
But for a select few,
lives were touched,
souls heard, spirits freed.
I remember you.
