A Memorial
Where are they now, where did they go?
What happened to them- my heart wants to know.
Not here in my vision, no way to see,
They’re not coming back, yet I want them to be.
Where are they now, my faith must abide,
My heart keeps the feeling way down inside.
I believe in the spirit, I know there’s a soul
But there is always the question, “Where did they go?”
Perhaps to your heaven, or maybe it’s mine,
A rebirth someday or a trip as through time.
Where are they now? My vision seems clear.
They are in our hearts, with memories so dear.
Where they go doesn’t matter- it’s what you believe.
They’re really right here, helping you grieve.
And with letting them go, you’re setting them free…..
Where are they now - stop thinking and feel.
They’re a part of your spirit, that’s what keeps them real.
To keep a small, special place near your heart,
And tuck them in safely, go on now just start.
Where are they now- they’ll always be here
Safely and warmly, they’ll always be near………

EPIC :D
'They' will always remain in memories and their deeds!
I am sure to say that your work is totally amazing is something you already know.
But hell, they are totally amazing! And I love the words that go with it. ♥
This one rocks!
Touching words about loss.My father used to have a tray on his window sill that belonged to his dad with the simple words 'blot out my faults but not my memory'
It lives on my window sill now.
I was never close enough to him and never learned enough but when he passed I felt like I would always be wearing one of his old shirts-like something of the soul came down a generation.
Thank you
Have a SUPER week !
Hauntingly Beautiful...
I absolutely love your work.
Beautiful poem. It basically expresses what everyone feels when they lose someone they truly love. And the image is absolutely amazing, I know you made it yourself after reading your about me, haha. You are absolutely gifted with words and with images - don't stop doing what you're doing! :D
This is sooo beautiful and wonderful and fitting. Keep up the excellent work. Have you ever submitted anything to literary magazines or contests for money? Because you totally should.
