Your Memory.

I still cry sometimes.

your vivid memory floods my emotion.
and it all just comes pouring out.

I know you wouldn't want me to.

my best memories of you are happy, laughing.
you're the bright star guiding me in the night..

I just can't let it go.

your last moments on earth were so far from you.
confiding in the pain you knew too well.

I hope you knew that we love you.

our hearts bleed, for you had filled them with hope.
and we can never be whole again.

Amazing. You capture the feeling of loss perfectly, and as I speak from experience, this is difficult to do properly. Keep up the good work sweetie. Niko
