A Memory

I carry you always
Closest to my heart
“cause there’s no place 
Better, more suited than that!

That is where you belong!
You, who had filled my life
With nothing but love.

It’s been many years
Growing up together was so much fun.
And every moment spent in togetherness
Was blissful in its outcome.

Then the years elapsed;
Chipping at your physique faster
and one day 
You crossed over to the land of stars.

In this nether world,
For me, all that was left back
Were numerous photographs;
Memories of togetherness
And a sense of yearning
When possessed by loneliness.
