On The Other Side Of The Memory
We Will Meet Again
I've held you in a memory
I've held you in my arms
Whether smooth or leathery
Fair weathered or through storms
Your love has etched a part of me
I never want erased
I'm transformed by those memories
And each one lines my face
They alter my direction
They guide, like the north star
They harness my affection
So that, no matter where you are
I can be there with you
Holding those moments in a smile
Knowing that when my dreams come true
We'll be together, in a while
So, I let your love shine through me
I keep alive the life we shared
And one day when I cross that sea
I will relive them with you, there

One must always try to remember the good, the bad, and even the ugly memories for that is how we learn and your beautiful poem makes it sane. Good job.
This poem captures grief, love and remembrance with such softness and dignity. It feels both deeply personal and universally relatable.
Very nice, Kelli and loved the image.
Your heart unfolds so sweetly in every well timed line. Beautiful Kelli!
