A time has past
since your first look at me
young love, so fast
and unforgettably

All we fought for
without once taking sides
was life, not more
unseen family prides

But together
we lived uncertainty
now forever

I ask .... "remember me"

A fallen star
trying so hard to be
not who you are
but what you meant to me

You lost your way
before we tried to start
but not to say
you were lost to my heart

Not together
I live uncertainty
on forever
please play .... "remember me"

Fear is a blindness, heart is the cure. - C. Belville 02

Take me where the tides start
So I can pull you into me

sounds like something he would have written about me if he could write

Lauren - we all feel loss, and if it didn't ache then it would not be true.

Dixie - there is no doubt that you maybe a fallen star ... but your words and heart still shine through any darkness I have seen.

   ** This was written for a friend you asked me to write something for her about her oldest son's father who took his own life without getting to know his son ...
his 34th birthday would have been next month and she wanted something to put in the local paper to mark the day.
