Lorena

Lorena how I miss you, such a beauty you were my dear, loving you was the joy of my life. Your lips were so sweet on mine, each time we kissed, sent me to paradise and beyond. Your red hair, I will never forget, the fragrance sent me to a haven of rest, tears shall flow whenever, your memory touches my heart, our time spent was only a shadow, gone as a vapor flows away. Holding you in my arms, is a wish wanting to come to past, but is not to be. Our little walks in your garden or by our pond, where we would sit for hours on end. Poetry was a love we both shared together till the very end my dear sweet heart. Of nature we would watch, touching us deeply, we would depart into the house and write a poem about it. One dreadful day in the fall of 1969, after two years of loving you, the doctor gave us the news, so wanted to marry you, because of your humble ways, you said no, you didn't want to burden me. Today I paid you a visit, placed flowers on your grave, as tears flowed to the ground. Lorena will never forget you, nor shall I ever love anyone again, for, could never find such a woman as you, anywhere in the world.

Well, I do see imagination in your chosen categories, so I am hoping this is not a reality for you. If it is, so sorry for the loss of what might have been. heartbreaking and sad. Beautifully written. Love, Shar
