Like A Frigid,

Winter Sale,

Dissipating The Summer Breeze…

Like Spring Flowers

Faltering Like The Autumn Leaves…

With Teary Eyes Suppressing

Heavy Cries…

We Try To Stand Tall,

But Sometimes The Ego

Subsides…

In My Dream We Share A Laugh,

But Once Again I’m Faced

With A Hard Reality…

Like When The Morning Comes,

And The Sun Is Up,

The Moon Is Gone…

This Is A Dedication To My Little Cousin

We Lost Him To Cancer…

Love Never Dies❤️
