I Fell In Love

I fell in love tonight,
A hundred times-
Plus one.

I fell in love with my father,
My mother,
And their sons.

I fell in love with strangers,
Each one of them became-
Those I have a kindredship with,
My father still remains.

I fell in love tonight,
Hugs, tears, and kisses, too.
I carry the sweet perfume of those,
Who bid farewell to you.

I fell in love tonight,
In the darkest of my days.
They will help me through,
My forever hurt-
You wouldn't want it any other way.

I fell in love tonight,
You paved this path with care.
Your legacy lives on with us-
You will forever be there.
