Two words bring back painful bittersweet memories.


Two Words

I just heard
His name.
Two words,
Echoing, drearily.

My mind
Is waking
Remembering,
Heat aching, mournfully.

A spring
Woodland:
Bluebells
Waving, sweetly.

A sunny
Afternoon:
Side by side,
Touching, softly.

A snowy day:
Bone-chilling,
Forcing us to
Shelter, secretly.

These memories
My heart
Treasures:
Pierced, mortally.

Such memories should be treasured. A true love never leaves us, even as it turns into only memories. A name (two words) that will be etched in your heart forever. I enjoyed the poem.
