Memory

I see you in your garden, planting with your heart.
Your gentle hands, caressing the flowers,
Helping them to flourish with your love.
Suddenly, the petals fall, and the flower wilts into nothing,
Taking you with it...
My beautiful memory is destroyed with pain, hurt, and loss.
I can't see the good times through my tears.
Gingerly, you place your hand on my shoulder.
I can see all in your eyes.
There is no hole in your heart, no pain,
So why should there be in mine?
You show me an escape, a peace
A place to be with you,
A memory~
We will be together always, in our garden
Giving the flowers life, even when we have lost our own
Pain will never again tarnish my memories
Not while you are in my heart
  I love you forever
And I will never forget.
