in Erinnerung (In Remembrance)

I remember:
The way you laughed
And the way your eyes would light up
At some of my bad jokes.
And now you've gone away
Leaving me here to mourn you
And wonder why?
Such bitter-sweet memories I hold
Like a golden treasure
That could be stolen
At a moments notice.
And here I sit
Writing in dedication
Wishing I could turn back the clock
And save you from yourself.
But it's to late to save you now.
And regrets fill my mind
At the way I never told you
How much I appreciated you.
Good-bye,
Sweet Rose,
And may you rest in peace.
