Margaret Deloach Poem
Running fast,
the most beautiful of
bullets.
Sarcastic
but always classy.
The lights are up now,
I bid you adieu'.
Thanks for the memories and the ever present inspiration,
seeing so much love
It is for you.
Nothing hurts now
but our hearts,
but like the brilliant,
flash of energy you were,
you never quit looking out for me ,
nor I for you.
As this was our dynamic-
I wanted to keep you in one place
for a long moment
and like so many others,
to harness a little of that spirit.
It was an amazing run babe.
For me you will never grow old.
XO

Margaret Deloach Poem
I heard your encouragement so many times,
worded ten million
different ways
that I forgot to listen for it anymore.
Your love never came lightly,
never with levity but rather cast echoes when it left the horizon.
Sometimes it hurt on purpose,
Just so you knew how severely you could affect.
You forgot to listen too.
I have been brave enough to hold the gaze of a barrel
that had a recent, accurate and deadly history.
I scheduled having my first child completely alone.
I am not brave without you.
You have had more purpose than you ever realized.
I wish I could tell you all about it today.
You would tell me to hold my head high.
Wouldn't you?
Your tall tales were magical to me.
I was silly to always believe you.
You needed someone to resound what you wished to be true.
To make it all sound less tragic.
Bye momma
