Shoebox Memories

Thoughts and memories buried,
In the back of my mind,
But something is wrong,
You seem to fade with time,

I try to cope day by day,
And I feel Im losing touch,
I forget how you'd laugh,
Or make me smile and such,

Looking through this box of notes,
A tear falls and lands on your cheek,
As I reach to wipe it away,
I hear your voice and the words you speak,

"Baby, dont wipe those tears,
I'll always be by your side,
Even though I cant be seen,
Believe we'll be together; confide"

----------------------------------------------------------
What i meant by the tear falling on your cheek...was the person looking at a picture of the loved one

    Awww this part is so touching and really makes one wipe a tear. I can see the tear fall upon the page as you gently begin to wipe it away and ... a voice speaks to you from afar .... Fantastic imagery created.

    Very unique title .... and you create such touching imagery!

    I have gone back to check your age .... I can not believe you are only 16. I have a son who is 16 and can't imagine him writing love poetry as touching as this ....
    Excellent read! You have great potential dear heart .... keep up the wonderful writing.
