                My.........heart    
           is flooded, reigning tears    
          to cleanse...a well-worn soul.
        Pieces  floating....of the years,
            boxed treasures, memories  
             old... Collected in the
                better times and
                    saved to
                      ....    
           ..
          rum-
          mage                        
         through
        When-ever
         moments
         needed
          lift,              to
                            savor
                          thoughts    
                          of...YOU.
                        Upon a shelf
                         is..framed
                          the day
                            when

     ..
    first,
   we..two
  were..one.
  Placed now
behind, I hide
the present...
  with words
  that said
    we're            ..
                    done.
                  Today my
                 tears, your
                 shoulder wet,
                 releas..ing
                  more from
                    ..me..

             though.....comfort-
          ing, you tried once more,
         never again...shall be, "I
        hate this  process", I said
          this morn, "I can barely
            stand the pain", hug-
             ging me and said,
                  "I know"
                     my  


                             ...
                            heart
                         tears began
                        to reign. What
                          can one do
                            but try
                             ....

      ..to..
      toughen
    the softness
    of memories,
     You...are
      for the
        ....                  mo-
                             ment
                          still view-
                         ed, everyday
                        in mind's eye,
                         but no longer
                           are "WE".

I know that the tears are real for you at this moment and that makes this even more special to me.  You have met my challenge well and I thank you for that. Your verse as always is superb.  Now a little something for you to enjoy hopefully.

but it is the loss that shapes the image,
gathers the flowers weaves the garland."-

MOON, how could I not have caught this one anyhow the presentation is divine but the expression is breathtaking...

I apologize for my tardy response and I must say this poem I shall hold as one of your best that I have been fortunate to read...
It kinda touches upon my life and I thank you for such a great read.
