It seemed like only yesterday
When you found the key to my heart
You and I became inseparable
For nothing could keep us apart

But our light of love has dimmed
And my blue skies have turned grey
The sun moved behind the clouds
On the day you went away

Many nights we once spent together
Searching for our guiding light
As the moon shone like a beacon
We wished upon our star so bright

But those nights are now a memory
For you have faded far from view
But I recall with much fondness
All the times spent loving you

You were the star in my constellation
My treasure beneath the sea
Part of me will always love you
For you once meant the world to me

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

The stars are there my friend - perhaps hidden behind a temporary cloud cover.

In our hearts there is always room for more than one kind of love.

Hugs, Marti

Sue:  I'm glad to know that you are not really lost and lonely, as this poem implies! Good writing!
