stain

Tears Stain
The pages remain
With me forever

As I look back
Keeping track
Of moments,precious
Spent in you
Holding on to life
As I held you
In tender embrace.

Moments, slipping away,
Yet 'cos I keep them, here they stay,
As time weather's the garden,
Where we once walked,
Entwined in each other,
A tree remains,
A tree of friendship,
offering shelter.
