I could make her laugh,
I remember her smile.
Her eyes light up,
my eyes would follow.
We could stand in the rain
and be happy together.
I remember finding her name
etched in a wall
wishing it was my own carving,
it seemed the right thing
to do at the time.
I remember watching
her shoulders
when she would laugh out loud,
they were the same
I would hold close to my heart.
she could laugh at my stories
I would smile at her beauty.
Such a gift is love.
