Alone... Poem by YURI DURAAN

Alone...

Rating: 3.0


I woke up one night because
I heard you call...
I answered the night
but the night was still

I walked by the river and
heard you whisper to me...
I cried to the water
but the echo was empty

I stood by your grave and
felt your breath on my face...
I wept on the stone
but you were still gone

I remembered a time when
we had laughed together...
and this memory is what I'll
hold onto in my heart forever

Memories of laughter, of love of moments cherished are worth remembering as moments in time. Bob
