Smoke...Memories...Figments to never again, be...

By SolApathy

This was the song we sang together...I'll never forget...My throat hurts so bad right now...
This week your birthday will pass by...Yvonne's birthday month that will never be again. 
RIP my love. Thank you for so many things that I never deserved to experinece with you.

In the bloom of spring I find only the darkest of dreams
Time through a looking glass, too fast it passed
Over a year now expired
So tired
Broken of the memories of a long past breeze
Smoke of moments I can never quite touch
Burden of these thoughts, too much
Campfire smoke rises
Escaping, never to be caught
These are my dreams
Escaping, unable to capture by any means
Yet the smoke, stings
Remembrance of our last night
Before you took flight
Soaring with angels I hope
For one moment as I lay at your grave
We spoke of nothing bitter
Laughter as my thoughts drift to brighter days
Thank you my love
For your hand upon my soul
Helping me to make sense of letting go

    That was absolutely beautiful. And absolutely full of sorrow. Very good, good flow throughout the poem. Great read

    Hard to read bro, and excellent in its execution. Perfect symmetry in the closing.
