You remain, forever,
in little things lost
and found again.

You do remain, forever
in the moments past,
and smiles frozen.

You have, do, and will remain, forever
in your Shattered dreams and
My broken promises,

like a light, little leaf
fallen on the dust
to kiss it life, or

like a gust of wind
meant to blow it
away from me

as wicked moments have
snatched your pretty smiles
too far away from my poor eyes.

Yet you remain forever,
for you are writ on my heart
in that ink, which never fades away.
