Do you remember

Do you remember calling my name
as I walked with set determination
oblivious to the world.
Head down I walked
the day was cold and grey
the rain made puddles at my feet.

Do you remember calling my name
as I sat all alone in the park
enjoying the sun on my face.
Head raised to the sky
the day sunny and bright
warming me inside and out.

Do you remember calling my name
as I lay in the sand
my hands sifted the grains through my fingers.
The waves crashed
and lapped at my feet
the trickle of water teased my back.

Do you remember calling my name
as I lay in eternal sleep
the tears rolled down your cheeks
your hands grasped the edge of the bed.
And your cry-
your cry was loud and long lasting.

Do you remember...
