Lori Steindorf Poet Rhyme

Your Memory's Along for the Ride

I love you with all I've got
I cannot lie; pretend to be someone I'm not
I could give you reasons why
Most of them would make you cry

Tears of joy; tears of pain
We shed them together
And saw each other through hardship
Yet here we are today

I've walked away - had to vacate to placate
When I could have stayed
In my heart, you'll forever remain

We go back so far
For so many years
I cherish the memories - our banter and sacred time keep you fresh on my mind.

To this day, they're still pristine
A testament of what your persona means to me
We were in sync

It hurts to have lost you
It will never be the same
In my heart and mind, 
I could never forget you
Leaving your memory behind

How I wish it were true
It's as though you're here
As I reminisce, I'll never forget you
