In memory's darkest hold


"Since we deserved the name of friends,
And thine effect so lives in me,
A part of mine may live in thee
And move thee on to noble ends.

Should my shadow cross thy thoughts,
Too sadly for their peace,
So put it back for calmer hours,
In memory's darkest hold."

  1. I love that old man. I don't know him. Obviously. But I love him.

  2. I know. There was something about him when I stumbled across the picture that made me love him as well.
