Dactylorhiza Sambucina

The first moment I saw you will be forever etched in my mind,
Your golden hair laid out across the rocks of our driveway.
When you smiled, I noticed the greenness of your eyes,
That matched the color of the blades of grass not far away.
You were instantly my missing piece,
And the fear of abandonment was gone away.
Every tragic moment,
You were right there to hold me close.
I will never forget your friendship,
And all the love you gave to me.
We spent the weakest years of our life side by side,
And I believed you would always be there.

It broke my heart the day you walked away.
I will never understand how he could so easily take you.
Your flitting love did not last long,
As I knew it wouldn’t.
I had hoped you would return to me,
But you moved on to the next.

Oh, how I miss my dearest friend,
There are so many things I wish I could share.
My life has been no fairy tale,
But your image is in my heart, so fair.
I know that you are happy,
Living the life you lead.
And I hope you’ll always remember me.
