Here is another one I found going through some old boxes.
I forgot to forget
the ashes of yesterday.
A reminder of the love
you once gave.
Sometimes I think
you are still alive.
But when I realize you’re not
why did I survive?
You did not want to be
thrust in the ground.
So you were burnt
in your favorite gown.
It came so soon
how quickly you were gone.
Sometimes I think
I can’t go on.
I’m forever indebted
for giving me breath.
How abrupt and awesome
is this thing called death.
