Since you have passed on...no, since <br />you died...you remain, <br />in the shadows of my life. <br /> <br />When I move, as in life, we still <br />share the same shadow. <br /> <br />Our favorite place to dine...you are there. <br />You are the love in the music and the <br />joy in the night. <br /> <br />The air I breath, is you, filtered through <br />the sunlight and the darkness. <br /> <br />My laughter...my joy...my tears...my pain, <br />are filled with the essence of who you were. <br />Of who you are. <br /> <br />The soft glow, of your distant shadow, <br />leads me through the dark corridors of life, <br />and into the joy, that is sunlight. That is you. <br /> <br />You are the shadow of children at play and <br />you are the innocence, of who they are. <br /> <br />As the mighty Sequoia Trees, cast their <br />shadow, to merge in the shadow of <br />the snow covered mountains...you are there. <br />For you are their strength and you are their beauty. <br /> <br />You are the shadow of a flickering fireplace and <br />the warmth, that fills me, with thoughts of you. <br /> <br />Forever, I shall seek refuge, in the shadow of <br />your being and the cloak of your love. <br /> <br />Until our shadows merge once again... <br />know that I love you. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />©Joe Fazio<br /><br />(brief renderings) Joe Fazio<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/forever-yours-25/
