thank you

remembrance
creates much more
than what ever happens
now

i thank you

this connection
the seldom hello

i thank you

you make me treasure
life
and love

for you made me believe
in love

in retrospect
i miss you the most

and you won't know it
this is a lament

and the odd tale
of love

love

yes i say
love

who would have believed
that this was
in fact
love

cherished now

i thank you

and i welcome the thought
of long ago

i thank you

for nate

i watched it unfold

beneath your hands

there it was

i was in awe

so much

out of nothing?

tragedy struck

it fell intwo

your hand enveloped it

i rescued a piece

beautiful enough for me

i kept it for myself

treaured

that's what it should have been

but i failed

i lost this insignificant shard

somewhere

somehow

now all i have to remember

a voice

a look

and that you created

is gone forever

like i fear you are
