shanie.

Remember always
The times that once were
Before you were gone

Remember one time
We were in your room
Stacked books in our arms

Remember that tent
The one we had built
You read the piled books

Remember those words
Words I could not read
I was young, unschooled

Remember your love
You did not care if
I could not read. You
Encouraged me on.

I remember. I
Made up stories off
The top of my head.
I never did that
Before you. Before
You were gone.


I just wrote this poem in like, 5 minutes, because I need a memory poem by tomorrow and I wanna go to bed ;o)

wash away.

I have tried to train myself to not miss him when he is gone. That way, when he is gone forever, I will be okay.

But he makes a print on my lips each time I go.

He leaves a trail in my memory that keeps me coming back.

When he is gone,

gone to stay,

maybe enough tears would wash it away.

Shane Ryan Ellis continued...

I find myself thinking about him a lot lately. It comes in waves...I will suppress it for a while; let my mind clear itself from the pain of not having him anymore, then it comes again. I try not to let it get to me. I have cried a few times in the past few years. But he is gone, things like this happen, and I do not like it. I never really believed the statement "Only the good die young." Then Shane died, and now I wonder..

For some reason the slideshow did not like words underneath it. It wanted to show off alone.
