Hello.
Goodbye.
Gone in the blink of an eye.
A star burning bright...
fading fast...
burning rose petals...
to ash...
eyes closing,
just sleeping,
this too shall pass.

You missed the trick-or-treating,
and the changing of the seasons,
falling leaves,
bare trees,
and thanksgiving.
It's time to wake up now
precious one
but I fear you're going...
going...
gone.

It's getting colder now...
outside...
the rose petals are
falling,
the thorns are
pricking...
my eyes
you're getting colder
now
not ready to say
goodbye...
just...
goodnight,
sweet dreams,
and remember...

I love you.

they way you see her in everything, the leaves and trees, and time of year, and the inability to fully let go, and your own personal journey in the cold, are just beautifully protrayed here. i feel for you as i read these words.
