~Too beautiful to forget~
What moves through us is a silence,
A quiet sadness,
A longing for one more day,
One more word, one more touch,
We may not understand
why you left this earth so soon,
Or why you left before we were
ready to say good-bye,
But little by little,
We begin to remember
not just that you died,
But that you lived.
And that your life gave us memories
Too beautiful to forget.
