For One Last Time Tonight, just for just one last time I want to believe our love is fine So please don’t turn on that light Leave my tears the cloak of night I’ll shield my heart from the pain Until I’m on my own once again Don’t look any deeper than my kiss Pretend that it’s my love you’ll miss Call back the words of your goodbye Just for now only hear my soft sigh Take back my soul into your flame We’ll play again lovers fiery game Tonight as I wrap you all around me Pretending that here you want to be I’ll not taste the honey of your lies Instead my soul will evoke your sighs I’ll dream that you still want all this To feel the wonder of my flames kiss Don’t let me see your goodbye eyes Or see our fires flicker before it dies Our lips will meet this one last time I’ll wish that there is no final line And I’ll imagine that this is all true Before I say my last words I love you Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Oh, sis......I haven't been able to post for awhile, and I have missed reading your thoughts, and this one is so poignant....how many times I have left my tears in the veils of darkness.... Live...Love...Be grateful for both!! |

Marsha Just one last time - Oh that would have been wonderful but the pain would still be there afterwards. I really enjoyed this one and I am glad I stopped by. Taffetta |
