In Loving Memory Poems
From Me
If you see a sunset, it’s me, smiling
From behind it.
If I go away far, and you see a star
If you find it,
I’m inside it.
You can fold it, and hold it forever,
If you hide it.
If our words and worlds sever — if ever
I lose you;
If two thousand light-years or seven
Confuse you;
Remember me. [...]

In Loving Memory Poems
Nostalgia
as i look him in the eyes…
leading me in the pinnacle of faith dancing with reverence…
saw the cloud eating him away…
neither he fought it, nor he stayed…
saw him fleeting far from me gave that smirk and wave “goodbye” too…
he took my heart, but live within my soul…
i couldn’t reach him anymore.
walking away [...]

In Loving Memory Poems
I Thought
I thought
That I forgot.
I thought
I left you
In my past.
Years went by
I thought
the feeling died
Inside
At last.
Then
One day
It came to me -
So suddenly.
So fast.

Remember
When I no longer stand here by your side,
At night beneath the moonlit milky way;
When I no longer kneel with you and pray,
And swear to you with stern, unshaking pride
That I will never travel far away…
When I my faithful promises betray,
And on the far side of the earth I hide;
When all my words of poetry [...]
Picture in a Box

In Loving Memory Poems
Box
I found your photo
In a box.
It didn’t move.
It didn’t talk.
And every day,
I looked in vain,
And every day,
It stayed the same.
It didn’t answer me,
Or change.
The lines across
Your face remained
Exactly where
They’d been before.
I hung your picture
On a door,
I lay my memories
On the floor.
I put your picture
On the wall.
You didn’t write.
You didn’t call.
My stomach burned
My [...]
In Loving Memory – Poem by Els van den Eynde

A poem for a loved one passed away…
Memory
Memory is a melody
Replicated in semitone
A da capo performed in diminuendo
the last dying note vanishing, unnoticed
And we wish
for the melody
not to pass out of existence
but to transfer to another space
where it obtains
forever
