Poem

I wrote this Nov 15, 2004

She was like a rose

She was planted and wanted immediately

She came out full of beauty that seems so rare

She brought a peace to me

A happiness I never knew.

I held on tight, not quite knowing why

Slowly she started to say good-bye

In the midst of what was to be her glory

In the early morning hours she left my life

I can still smell her, feel her, and sometimes

Just sometimes I can even hear the laughter

That was her.

She came and left with a beauty almost untold

But for a while I was the one

Who saw in her eyes. I'll never let her beauty

Truly Die

What a beautiful poem!  I am sorry for your pain, but what a shame it'd be if losing someone like that didn't leave a hole.  You'd be unreal, unworthy in some way.  I know what I'm trying to express, but doing a poor job of expressing it.  So, I'll merely send my love and a prayer instead.  -  Barbara
