Still Loving You

The amnesia of you tries
                         to live in me...
                         Erase our splendid memories ...
                         I'm afraid to forget
                         those astonish moments ...
                         I realize that the happiness 
                         i held one day I will not have
                         again ...
                          Life has betrayed us,
                          and I cry for your absence ...
                          I miss your laugh,
                          even the screams when
                          in disagreements ...
                          We parted without
                          farewell without
                          I love you, without
                         "we will meet again"...
                           I'd love having had known
                           you best...
                           I would love  to have grown
                           with you ... stay by your side
                           forever ... 
                            But we were not allowed.
                            Your presence
                             so fleeting still lives
                              in me and in this 
                              unbalanced life... your
                              missing figure still
                              serves me as a guide ...!

Alkas we share similar feelings. I've only written a few serious poems of love and loss. I hide behind what I call my sense of humor, but your poem speaks very well for me. This poem is beautiful in its sadness. Thank you.
