Tell me at the end if this evokes something else you have heard before. Post in comments.
Our Walk
Remember Remember
Fondly, that day in September
When you returned to me.
The golden light kissed our face
As your hair gently brushed mine
When I whispered in your ear
Your beauty in pangs of grief
Of loss and turmoil seeking root
Always with a gentle smile
Your face with radiance shone
Rained on with uncertainty and loss
And looming distance ahead
Uncertain. Unknown.
The space between us
Closed for one pure day.
*The inspiration for this piece was the Guy Faulks 5th of November meets Rappelle Toi, Barbara by Marcel Mouloudji
Was that what you guessed?
