Lost in memory; 
Wasted breath and time take toll.
The minds eye, can be so cruel

Out

Face down, dirty,
her damp hands 
flutter and stream
in memory of pure bliss’
hot breath of life,
her self-murder
a-way into
the shadow on her eyes.

What Can You See

to gaze
into my eyes,
what do you see?
what history of me
remains..
in memory-
an epitaph of yesterday,
a legacy of my past;

Sing

Singing alone
A voice at the mercy of desire
Singing alone
On a lonely bed
Singing alone
In memory of herself
She sings alone
Suffering
With a song to prove it

In Memory Of

I like to think
that if I can think it
there is way

somehow

someway

the then and now
interchangeable

holding a kingdom

the weight of my
heart would suffice

In My Heart

I feel in my heart he will stay.
He lives in my heart.
He is what I live for.
He is faithful to me, 
I am faithful to him.
We may pass on,
But our love will live on if only in memory.

Giving

To take out of life without giving in return,
is to die without accomplishment.
For what we have in life, 
can not be taken in death.
But what we give of our self's,
can be left in memory.

Statue of Liberty

so much to see 
on the statue
of liberty
from france it came
such a long way
in memory
it stands 
for freedom and liberty
crown on her head
behold
the beautiful
lady
made
of 
stone.
