Like a broken record
Skipping ahead, behind, sticking
Replaying just a moment
Over
The continuation in our minds
Holds fast
To what we once felt
And the strength it gave us
Your support motivated me
To reach for the stars
And fall
You made me stand again
Although our hearts moved on
To love another
Your memory
A playback in my heart
Oddities of circumstances
Render your face
Behind my eyes
Igniting my mind
I know its there
In yours too
If I sense the times
So shall you
Never forget those who you touched
Their love for your memory
Is sure to haunt
Both the waking and dream filled states
For you my fallen lover
I still keep
A space in my heart
Awaiting

absolutely loved this stanza:
"oddities of circumstance
render your face
behind my eyes
igniting my mind"
I think that expressed the feeling of remembering a lost loved one better than anything I've ever read. Amazing write. I really enjoyed every line, couldn't wait to get to the next stanza to see what it had in store.
Excellent ending as well...
Thank you for entering!
