To D.

A little boy I was,
And you my big sis,
We played in the kitchen;
You gave me a kiss.

You were like the sunshine
For all that could see
With your gentle, kind heart
And witty repartee.

What choice crept upon us,
And took us oceans away?
Adding to that distance,
An inch every day?

What choice crept upon us,
That neither could see,
That made a hole in this heart
And left a memory?

You’ve gone your own way,
And there’s so much I miss;
That girl in the kitchen
That gave me a kiss.

So close to my heart,
Yet a stranger to my soul,
I will always love you,
My sweet little girl.

    I haven’t gone away anywhere. I am always here with you… the same way that I carry you around with me every­where always :*
