Remember Me


The day we met I knew we were meant to be together forevermore. Our love was written
in the stars, our destiny was etched in time.  Two became one bonded pair deeply in love.
I thought we had forever but in the book of time your journey was penned.  You left me
so quickly that I was not ready to let you go.  Now, I am lost in this cruel world wandering
alone and weeping. In the dark of night I hear you calling, remember me . . . 

in the dark of night I am here with you darling . . . you are not alone
Remember me _ fills my heart, it is overwhelming how love can transcend realms and still be so real. I go to the place where you rest, often, bringing red roses to lay at your head, that beautiful head full of ideas and words of wisdom. I promise to always keep our love alive, but I also promise to go on with my life and make you proud. You loved my writing, so I will write with you as my muse, everything I do and accomplish is because of what you instilled in me, so yes, I will remember you . . .
the leaves whisper love as I walk between the stones . . . to cry at your name

I am not normally a fan of haibuns, but you have written this one with so much love and tenderness.. I can feel the ache in your words, but also the love for a beloved who is no more.... Always sad when someone we love someone so much leaves prematurely.... We never really get over it, just used to the pain... Nice song to accompany it.... Congratulations on your placement in the contest..
