Memories Can Fade

A feeling of fear as Mom shook my body,
And the feeling of something terribly wrong,
“It’s going to be fine,” – my mom’s panic stricken voice.
Losing her was like loosing part of me,
But then I really couldn’t understand.
I was too little to know,
Though I was soon to learn;
Memories can fade, but feelings don’t,
Not when you lose someone you love.
