i remember you

I remember you…

Like a light, shining bright
Moving through the shadows
Of night…
Splitting the darkness apart
To show me that love is strong
Love is alive, surviving the times
Reassuring and comforting
Inspiring hope and faith
Reawakening dreams
And encouraging every good thing

I remember you…

Like a joy I could touch
Whispering through the clutch
Of despair and grief
Reminding me that my dreams
Are worthy of the time I spend
Reaching toward them

I remember you…

A beacon of hope amid the pain
Always patient, always caring
Wearing a smile filled with happiness
Brightening my life with acceptance
Understanding, never rejecting,
Always alive with sincerity and insight
Supportive of every ambition
Aware of every hope

I remember you…

A warm heart that chose to love
Beyond the worry and fear
Past the feelings of disillusionment
Through it all, whatever might come…
Love … is how I remember you!
