Today as you mourn, fresh tears have begun
Fountain of sorrow, for what has been done
Turn back the clock and take a new direction
Gone but still loved, just that one imperfection
Silken memories and Lilac ThOughts
Broken treasures and forget me knots
All is lost, but won't admit defeat
Because without her, my life is incomplete
A shinning gem now treasured in our hearts
We take Choices and Audition for our parts
Life can sometimes be as cold as the sea
All must remember, promises had no guarantee
Silken memories and Lilac ThOughts
Broken treasures and forget me knots
All could be lost, I won't admit defeat
Without her, my life is incomplete
Live by our rules paint with bright sunny hues
She tiptoed in church, in pretty bridesmaid shoes
Without bundles of joy, missing you hurts me
Alone without you, just how could this be
Silken memories and Lilac ThOughts
Broken treasures and forget me knots

Thank you for this thoughtfulness, I do recognise all my own work in this poem though

I can't comment on the poem because it is like I have written it myself, however you have a kind heart and I appreciate you for caring
Thanks again

For you bro!
This is written with lines from Her works. I used them to write to you. Thought it would give it a special touch. Thanks for the Bronze and the contest. Shaker
