To us Lost For a Lifetime

To all those lost,for
those who aren't here.

In the night we shed
many a tear.

The grass grows on your
grave.

I am a slave to your memory.
The light shines from your soul
upon mine.

The tears of sea splash on the
shore, as the reality sinks in.

Your gone, without a word you left.
No longer do you exist.

Misty, are the eyes that mourn for you.
Goodbye, We'll see you in heaven, friend of true.

    I can feel the emotion and sadness. You might want to check the use of the word "your" though. It should be you're the way you have used it here.

    This is a very heart fel poem, that speaks of the loss of one you have known and loved.

    The tears of sea splash on the
    shore, as the reality sinks in.

    Sometimes reality takes time, and than the oceans of tears come. It is part of the process, but a hard one for us all. You have expressed this well.

    "I am a slave to your memory."

    WOW

    Very powerful and yet true words.
    So many of us are indeed slaves to their memories.
    A very good poem.Great imagery.
    Quite dramatic with that black background also.

    Good job!
