In Memory

Ponytails and ruffled dresses,
Memories of sweet caresses.
Sometimes brings the tears to my eyes.
I remember mommy and daddy crying,
As a part of them was dying.
And I watched them sadly say goodbye.

But now there is only three,
Mommy, daddy, and me.
And there's a place in our hearts that no one else can fill.
It is a pain that will never be repaired,
Only one that has been shared.
It's a lose that takes more than time to heal.

It was such a precious time,
It didn't last long but the memory is mine.
There's just so much I wish I could have let them know.
There's a lot of things I can recall,
And I remember enough for the tears to fall.
And it's times like this it is hard to let them go.
