This is a poem that was given to me during the loss of my brother and I want to share it with you Nikki. ~~~ It seems where ever I go, People come into my life Or go out of it...leaving me Only a memory, touching me Where I can feel it and I wasn't through knowing them How do I halt my life to gather And keep those around me that I've known and loved? How do I know I am seeing you For the last time? And how do you keep fairy tales From losing their magic? And so ends an exciting chapter Of our lives, but also begins another chapter. And though we must part, We know we can always return to keep Fondly through the gold bound leaves Of our memory. For fairy tales are the happiest Stories we read, And good books are made of little chapters. There remains so much to say, Yet nothing that really needs saying, You already know. Forgive the tears... they are only bits of selfishness that can be contained no longer. I only wish to keep you a little longer, Within the boundaries of my immediate life. And so thank you for touching my life For letting me know you And love you... Author Unknown
