As I lie here,
Night after night,
Trying to put this lonely heart
To rest,
When I close my eyes,
All I can see
Are images of you,
Dancing across my mind,
Journeying into my dreams.
How could you be gone?
It can't be real
That I loved you
For such a short time.
I keep wondering how it would be
Had you not gone away;
Imagining life standing beside you.
I'd be by your side forever, you know.
I'd give you the rest of my life,
Had you stayed and not left me alone
To deal with this pain,
Having only
The memory of your face,
A faint remembrance
Of your gentle touch.
I know just what I need,
My Precious One,
And I'm not sure
How I'm going to cope
If I must keep seeing these
Images of you in the dark.

night-time and its silence brings out the good and the bad.

Snowpants,
You do not have to look very far. I can put your heart to rest. Easy easy.

Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love

A soft remember comes to light the night -

'Having only
The memory of your face,
A faint remembrance
Of your gentle touch.'

Lovely thoughts are these.
