Put you on a pedestal
Because you meant so much
To me
Made me laugh, craved you
Intensely
Every morning, I looked forward
To those calls
Even when you were exhausted
Even called at nightfall
Time together was short
Memories we're good
Time that I move on
For each day is a gift

Yesterday's address needs
To be filed away
Fresh starts need to open
Possibly something new, is good
I hope...

Cherish memories, no living
In the past
Be strong..
Weak shows through...
Emotions that are sad, will
Pass
