Memory...
Such a little thing.
You came to us that fateful night,
And I took you home.
I gave you food and water.
I kept you safe and warm.
We spent days together,
But only a few.
We had to part ways.
Forces beyond my control separated us --
Because it had to happen.
I brought you to a place
Where you could be safe
Without me.
They cared for you,
As I knew they would.
I felt good, content with my hopes that
You would find a new home.
Weeks pass...
You weren't on my mind --
Then you were, from nowhere.
A part of you I'd kept with me,
Worn on me... broken.
I knew something had happened.
I left a mindful message for the ones
Caring for you:
Hello, just checking up.
How is he?
How is Mem?
I waited for what I knew would come.
They say your health was waning.
They say you were not alone
When you passed. I trust them.
I feel that if I kept you,
You'd still be here.
It doesn't matter now.
I named you well...
