I Will Always Remember by Angel In Tears

Sitting in guilt,
Flooding with tears.
Looking at your face,
On a piece of paper.

I will never forget your face,
I will never forget all that time we spent.

But deep down inside,
I begin to get this feeling of uncertainty.
Did I really know you?
Were all my memories true?
People begin to tell me about you,
And I don’t feel that I knew you.

It seems all those days were false.
All those words you said were lies.
All the love I felt and feel,
Were for someone I don’t even know.

But I can’t manage the truth.
Not wanting to replace you.
I will not tarnish our memories or the love,
I will always fall asleep and remember your death.

O man
Hey Angel, I'm sorry to see that someone you knew and loved, passed away. It's sad to hear that you're living with guilt; I wish I could help you in some way. This poem is making me blink too much, no lie. (If it isn't my contacts drying out, it must be tears trying to come out).
Poignant poem Angel! Be strong Angel!

Don't cry,my tears are enough
Meri, this poem was written about my dad. He passed away seven years ago this September (but it doesn't feel that long some how...).Lately I have been thinking about him a lot, and when I questioned the people who knew him, they always told their point of view and how they saw him. Sometimes I think that I didn't even knew him, but I rather think off him how I saw him, and not how the rest did. Your comments are enough of help. Its lovely to read them. Thank you for the support hun

i know how you feel
hi angel i also know how it feels to have people tell you different points of views of someone you love.My grandad died 4 yrs ago this august and i had nobody close to me who i felt i could talk to my mum is an alcoholic and everyone else fell apart then others started to tell me stories about him and i ended up confused about who he really was. I've made my own mind up now and i believe he is the wonderful man how i always remembered

..
Gem I am sorry for your loss and that there was no one you could talk to. But I guess sometimes its a challenge which is given, and we have to pass it. However nobody should go through a challenge without a friend. (You can consider me as a friend, Gem )I am glad that in the end you have chose to remember your granddad as you saw him and that is how you will remember.Thank you for commenting,
