I Saw You Smile

I saw you smile the other day
Which took my breath from me
Memories of yesterday
And how things used to be

Laughter in the moonlight
Giggles in the wind
Time we took for granted
Can never be again

Kisses in the morning
At the break of day
As raindrops softly glisten
Apex of the suns way

Shadows in the darkness
Dancing in the sky
Holding hands together
Looking eye to eye

Tender gentle touched
Etched deep within my mind
Will stay with me forever
Until the end of time

Yes, I saw you smile the other day
And had to catch my breath
For I still love you baby
Even after death

dear rene: i am only 25 years old and ive lost 2 of my best friends to tragedies. the pain is always present and always hard to deal with. i also wish there was something i could do, or some words i could say that would help you. speaking from experience, i know there isnt. keep living your life, keep the pen moving and spill your heart onto that paper. thats the only thing that keeps me going. beautifully written. god bless.
