Along the waters edge I see
reflections of what used to be.
Long walks on the beach, as
the water rushed at our feet.
Your smile against the sunset; the
twinkle in your eyes, I knew you
were the one, the one who would
steal my heart.
There were midnight romps in the
meadow, and as we lay breathless
beneath the starry sky.
As your hand reached out to touch
mine, I felt something inside of me
stir; a passion so deep that time
it self could never destroy it.
Though the rivers may run deep,
And the sun may set behind the trees.
When the silver moon catches the
ribbons of midnight and rides them across
the sky, my love will be waiting.
Till I see you again.
One day, away from you and my heart
Is heavy with sorrow.
You are my life and without you
I cannot breathe.
How does one erase such love for
A being?
Is it possible?
My heart will beat again with
passion and life as I have known
it will once again be restored.
And I will wait till we meet again.
