Poems of Truth

Memory

I've met a girl
And she reminds me of you.
I'm not saying she looks like you
But rather that she acts like you.

I find comfort in this
Because in a way it makes me believe you're here.
Did you send her down from heaven?
To guide and protect me.

She reminds me of you in her smile,
And how it brings me comfort when I'm down.
She reminds me of you in her character,
And how she's quiet and peaceful.

She brings back Memories.
Memories I had buried deep down
Your death had broken me
But she slowly mended my heart without a fee.

So while she reminds me of you
I sit back and observe
Because while i've noticed her
She can't even know I'm there.
