Gone, Not Forgotten

Gone, Not Forgotten

A Poem by James W Wilson Jr

 When you where here,

 you gave my life such joy

 

Even now I remember things

 from when I was just a boy

 

I didn't know then,

just how much you'd go through

 

Now I know life takes its toll on everyone,

 even you

 

I always loved you

 and the memories that we shared

 

Never doubted your love for me,

 I always knew you cared

 

People come and go

but I will surely never part

 

With all the joy and happiness

you left within my heart

 

It might be hard for others

but I can plainly see

 

You'll never die

because you live through me
