In the tracery of lichen,
in the cracks between the whole,
the truth of you remembered,
etched eternal in my soul.
Long years have slowly weathered
all the memories I knew,
yet stone retains the language
of love, of loss, of you.

I like this–I’m wondering if your heart has turned to stone because of grief, or if I’m misreading. Regardless, I really do like your writing!

Thank you TriGirl. It’s a fair bit of that, and also a bit of memories failing, but one remaining written in stone.
Actually, not sure that explanation makes it any clearer. 🙂
