I searched for peace to remember you by,
trying to recall what you'd said.
Wanting to see your face,
to hear your voice...
In the business of life you faded
but solitude brings you back.
I embrace solitude much the same way
we embraced each other.
I miss you.
Profound talk, exhuberant laughter,
tears of truth and the knowledge of love
realized in the few short days we were
together.
I will always search for you
in the quietness of night,
praying to see the radiant smile you left me.
Wondering why I was left behind
and where you went...
on the beaches of Normandy.
