This poem is in memory of Trace... her life, her death, and our friendship.

WITHOUT TRACE

    In Memory of Trace

 

She’s gone, there’s no Trace

No more leather, no more lace

No alluring smile upon her face

He took her and left me with no Trace

 

A dark and troubled life she’d led

The hidden tears dark eyes had shed

Dangerous waters she had tread

Today I found out Trace was dead

 

Tough and hard, the role she’d played

Of nothing, she said, was she afraid

But when all her cards had been laid

Twas a tender heart God had made

 

A sister’s love we had shared

To each other souls were bared

Standing by her when no one dared

Staying with me when no one cared

 

Now she’s gone, I have no Trace

No long black hair falling ‘cross her face

In heaven now, a better place

Leaving me here without a Trace

 

 I’ll miss you…

Thanks so much

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
