A Brand New Start

When flesh and bone become but dust,

And earthly bonds are frayed and rust,

A cherished soul, a loving heart,

Transcend the world, a brand new start.

No longer seen with mortal eyes,

Yet lives in dreams where memory lies.

A phantom touch, a whispered sigh,

A treasured gem, a reason why.

In shadows deep, a beacon bright,

Guiding through the darkest night.

A love so pure, a soul so true,

A memory's treasure, ever new.

 

Though absent form, the spirit stays,

A constant warmth on cloudy days.

In heart's embrace, forever kept,

A love like theirs, forever wept.
