Analysis of Stay strong
Peggy Fritz 1963 (Michigan)
It was a cold, snowy day,
The first week of winter,
When I glanced at you,
And you walked my way.
I remember it well,
We were together all day,
Now sits an empty shell,
Where your head use to lay.
I relive that moment,
More times than i should,
And try to find peace,
If only I could.
Moving on is tough,
At least for one,
So I have to keep trying,
Even when it is rough.
I try to be strong,
And try to forget,
Then I hear your voice,
And our favorite song.
