Lost in Her Memory

 

As I crossed the field to where she lay

For the first time
The memories came rushing back

Of the love we shared

And the times we were apart

No matter where I was

I could feel her in my heart

It kept me moving forward

In my times of trials

For twenty years I kept her in my heart

Until we met again

On that warm summer day

Her eyes still sparkled, melting my fears

But after a short time

She left me with my tears

Not caring about me

Or the love I have for her

Now all that is left are the memories

And a flower pressed

Between the pages in a book

My tears fall freely

As I place a single red rose on her stone

I tell her,

I will remember you always

Now I must begin a new life

Without you
