In the depths of my being, their essence remains,
Every detail absorbed, right there in my head.
Their favorite color, a canvas so bright,
Their truest expression, a source of delight.
I witnessed their joy in their favourite show,
Their laughter and tears, a captivating flow.
Their unique way of eating, a dance of delight,
Each bite, a story, an appetite's height.
And oh, their face when displeasure arose,
A vivid display, a moment of prose.
But now they are gone, no longer here,
Yet their presence lingers, oh so clear.
All that I know, it haunts me each day,
Knowing them deeply, but they're far away.
To hold such knowledge, yet feel so alone,
A bittersweet ache that I cannot disown.
Their absence, a weight upon my soul,
A longing that gnaws, takes its toll.
For all that I've gathered, every memory shared,
Seems useless now, as if no one cared.
Oh, rid me of this burden, set me free,
Release me from this agony that won't let me be.
My storage is full, I've reached my limit,
I beg you, relieve me from this painful visit.
But alas, the memories cling with might,
Like ghosts in the dark, they refuse to take flight.
For I've known them wholly, in heart and in mind,
And letting go feels like leaving love behind.
So I'll learn to make peace with this ache,
Embrace the remnants, the love that won't break.
For though they are gone, their spirit holds true,
And in knowing them fully, I've grown, too.
I'll carry their essence, their light deep within,
Finding solace in memories, where love has been.
Though it hurts to remember what's no longer here,
I'll cherish the knowing, for it once brought me near.
