I saw her then the fleeting image
Passing my vision like a ghost
Framed in the light through the glass
Her face stood out stark and bold

Oh how i loved her then
The pure untouched beauty of the grave
I saw her life as clearly as my own
And took her her into me body and soul

Yet when it was over done and gone
The yearning left me my love died
All i was diminished in a flash to naught
She was gone princess of the past

I think of her still my one my love
She has become less as the years go
As my age has caught me my mind goes
Yet her spirit remains with me still.

  


 Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace,
of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd
