I saw you yesterday with that brave smile on your face, and it cut
I tried to look your way with a reassuring smile, but still it cut into me
Both of us now, you with the tears fought back, me with a heart that could so easily crack, as I saw you yesterday with that brave look upon your face
I shall miss you, in ways that I may never find easy to say
And I will cry from a very deep part of me inside
But like the phoenix, though mythical in story
In truth, a simile, I cannot hide
For in your smile my darling, I see something that is born of hope
Something had to die in-order for something to be fixed that was too easily
Broke
But sometimes just as winter has taught me of it's cold
, I shall try hard to numb the feelings that take such a strong hold
I will shake them off with laughter and tears and shout to the heavens.
'Please Lord Keep them well and stand, their side
These two beautiful Angels
A very haunting piece Duncan, written as only you can, best wishes Lynda xx

Strange how a simile can become a smile, when you look at it with just one 'i'? A lovely piece Duncan. Danny
