“Always there, never gone.”
“Even when you are.”
“You are always here.”
In my hands I hold a flower,
In my heart I hold a memory,
One that I can never forget.
Among the flowers I recall their meanings,
And what they mean to me.
For they express what my voice can’t share,
The words that are hard to speak out loud.
For my emotions remain intertwined with them,
Memories that hold so many things.
All the good and bad,
The happy and sad moments.
Ones I wish to never forget,
Ones I wish I could.
Yet besides me you remain,
Within those memories I see you,
The person I will always wish to be with,
The you who has and will forever be besides me.
With these flowers,
With soundless words,
I hope you’ll know,
Just how much you mean to me.
For though I speak those words,
So many times,
Every single moment,
I hope you’ll always know,
How much I love you.
In my hands I hold a flower,
In my heart I hold a memory,
An emotion so dear,
A life,
That I can never forget
“Besides me you stand,”
“Always there, never gone.”
“Even when you are.”
“You are always here.”
“For you are the one,”
“The only one.”
“Who I would share eternity with,”
“Now and forever more”
Note: I must admit that I was getting a bit teary-eyed with this poem because I ended up thinking of my parents who have now been married for 27 years and have had a loving relationship I hope I can have in the future. Speaking of which, if you're reading this (mom and dad) I LOVE YOU!!!
