If I saw you again
I'd want to believe
I could say 1000 words

Alas, my love
we were never meant
to be more than just a picture

Aren't they supposed to last longer?

Go now

Be the bird
you always wanted to be

I will watch
As you fly into the sun
Growing ever smaller

Becoming so much bigger

come to me cats and dog
in the meadow you all roam
Leah, I watched you take your last breath
And the winter air froze my tears
The moon shined on you and made you glimmer
and through it your soul rose
The moon was half dark as it was light
like you and your sister
and a star placed too perfectly at your side
which I believe was your brother

and God gave me a chance to look at all of you one last time

Run kids and don't look back

I'll be right behind you
Rocky, Leah, Molly (Mojang).

I love you 3 all so much, roam free in Heaven.

When we'd step into Virginia Kendell
And the breeze came through
It flowed to your hair and you were godly
I just smiled and you asked why
I said nothing but that you were pretty
But in truth
you were the morning dew drop
on a cherry blossom in early spring
And that's where we've stayed since 2016
Immortalized

there she stood as a mighty redwood
so tall and ancient
only to be fell
laid there so harmless
and they will strip her bare
she will be your furniture
your house
your toothpicks
and you will/do not think of her
only what she could be for you

A kiss goodbye has many things in-between
Like when I call you back ten paces out for another
I always find a way to keep you there for another farewell
I will always have another goodbye in me for you
So much so you'll feel as if you never had to go
Sorry for using "another" so much. It just felt right.

Sight: Her salmon pink skin on her sage green dress
Caught my eye every time

Touch: The way her warmth flowed to me
Made me feel fire once more

Scent: Her 5 dollar cotton candy perfume
Lifted me from my feet like a pie window side

Taste: The bitter lemon chicken we had cooked
Rested on her lips when I came back for seconds

Hearing: When she'd sing, my god her voice
Was better than every song I did and didn't hear

So much so, I had forgotten my sixth sense
Senses

What can you write about a woman that hasn't been said yet?

Do you tell her things she's heard in past lives or ones she's yet to hear in future lives

I do not worry about redundancy

Instead I will learn ways that cannot be replicated

Languages that have yet to convey such meaning

I will be the wake: the light, the dawn

the cosmic inclination to summon you

with the hope our stardust collides again
