They ask me for words

But I am dumb.

No words can speak of memories

Although so fast they come.

The times we had together

How quickly years went by.

The laughter and the tears

And now, a silent sigh.

Friends gather to give sympathy

And cups of coffee by the score

Sometimes I talk to you at night

And then I weep some more.

But still, althoughI know you're gone

And hidden from my sight.

I feel the comfort of your arms

In the softest morning light.

So here are the memories that I want to share.

Now I'm alone and no longer a *pair*

Till we meet again on a distant shore

Sleep peacefully forever more. My twin.
