A Token of Memory
Form: Empat, Empat

Twenty-one years of missing you
And memories hang on my door
Good times, bad times, what can I do
But mark the day for love once more
And I know now time does not heal
Twenty-one years of missing you
And still our love is what I feel
Today I cry those tears anew
But grief is gone, our love still true
I feel you close and hold you near
Twenty-one years of missing you
Yet time made love become so clear
Our wreath of love now placed with pride
Reminding me not to be blue
For I know you are by my side
Thirty-five years of loving you

I am a freelance writer and poet and started writing after raising my two boys as a way of discovering just who Jez is. That is still very much an ongoing project but the journey so far has introduced me to many wonderful friends and fellow writers through an ever-growing love of poetry.

  4. This is so lovely, Jez. A real tribute to a loved one. You have captured so beautifully that loss brings such sadness, yet it is a gift to have felt (and still feel) so much love for someone. An evocative entry to the prompt, I loved it. Thank you so much for joining in with #writephoto. KL ❤
