A flicker conveys
more than words.

Your light continues
to keep me alive.

Despite the struggles,
the scattered shards
from your lamp
remain close
to my still beating heart.

Always there to
watch over me,
to connect with
me whenever I
was alone, lost, sad,
or needed someone
to share my sorrows.

Your spirit resides
in the lamp once
kept by your bedside table
when you were alive
with a pained
but joyful gasp
for air and life.

'Dolly'
My special name from You.

Forever.

My everlasting anchor
to safeguard the light
and love inside you gave.

Moni.
