We all have had people pass away in our lives that we still hold dear. I would like to make this thread a tribute of poetry to them, even pets that have past. If you have a poem or would like to write one, please share in this thread~

To Grandpa
The days draw to an end in which I
(los dias han llegado a su fin en el cual, yo grito
scream your name over and over in my head.
tu nombre una y otra vez en me cabeza.
Your memory subsides - the years pass me
tus memorias me relajan los años transcurriero y
by, but each day I grow stronger.
en mi, pero cada dia crece mas fuerte.
My angel up above, I can still feel your love -
tu eres mi angel puedo sentir toda via tu amor
the light in your eyes, your laughter
la loz en tos ojos, tos risas lo siento con esperanza
filled with hope...the joy you brought while you
la dicha que mediste cuando estabas aqui. por siempre
were here.. For ever in my heart - my
en mi corazon mi abuelo siempre te tendre
Grandfather's near.
dentro de mi.)
Love, J
(te ama, j)

Written a few years ago...
As a tribute - to Emily Dickinson - to the one I love
Confluence
When Darkness spreads its suffocating veil
When my mind - utters - "Madness" -
-I know -
When my Soul - freezes and splits -
Letting the brain go away
- I know -
May Silence - Stillness - come upon me
May certainties - trip - over realities
May - Pain - be - in between -
Me and my eyes - You and your hopes -
No Lifetime - No Bleakness - No Sorrow - No Fear - Nobody
Will keep me from knowing.
- You just know -
When Dawn has come to your heart -
When it is a Privilege -
To be Alive - To Give -
It is the smile of a child born - inside -
Spheres of Life - growing - inside -
- The secure feeling- The Dew - of Eternity -
- My Love - for You.
Not the best I've written, but still a tribute to two great women...

(My Dad...)
So hard to close my eyes
Knowing what I'll see there
Betraying all the peace I've earned
Lost in memories,
Of that day
Of that day
That day that never really fades
Always comes back
The pain,
The pain,
The pain of that day
I am here but always some of me remains, there...trapped, so
I am torn,
Torn between who I am
And all I wasn't
And all I'll never be
I can't see anything
but him
Can't see anything
but who I'll be
Can't see anything
but this rage
Can't see anything
Through the falling tears,
Heart has fallen and broken, shattered emotions and dreams
I want to sleep it all away
Wake up from my nightmare
Wake up to his embrace
FATHER, FATHER, WHY
Did it have to be like this
Broken pieces of what'll never be
Cuz all I see is you
You've gone. I remain like a lost child terrified
Thoughts frozen in fear
Knowing it's not my fault but never being able to silence that voice
Oh GOD what have you done?
Where did you go?
Why did you leave me?
Why did you leave me?
Leave me,
Leave me,
Alone
Alone holding the pieces of my heart, hands frozen from the cold
Feel like I'm going through the motions
but I'm never really there
Feel like I'm lost inside myself
Running from the misery
Of that day,
That awful day,
When my whole world
Came crumbling down
Around his cold dead body
My world collapsing in on itself, falling in on me
Felt myself crack
Felt my sanity give way
To the shadow of myself
This masquerade has got me twisted
Who am I but a fragile child?
Wishing this was all some dream
That I could awaken from
Wake up from the torture
That is me
That I've created for myself
That I carry through each day
My burden, all the pain you were trying to escape is now mine
Someone please wake me
I can't take much more of this
Wake me from this nightmare
I can't take much more of this
I'm tired of running
Running from all this agonizing grief
That I feel
You are all I see
When I close my eyes
Everytime I close my eyes
Everytime I try to sleep
The dreams,
Visions of you, there
Oh cold and alone
Oh where was I
And oh where are you now
I need you
To help me close my eyes
And not see, that day,
That day
That awful day
