They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.
A million times I needed you,
a million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you
you never would have died.
In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no one could ever fill.
If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane,
I'd walk the path to heaven
and bring you back again.
Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again
I really loved your poem. I thought the imagery was great, my favorite lines were "If tears could build a stairway, and heartache make a lane..". I also felt you did a really good job rhyming without making anything sound forced. Every single line flowed smoothly, and your entire poem was filled with a lot of emotion, which was very well expressed.
