Do not cry for me, Carolina
Now my sun has touched the sea.
I don't want the tears on your face
To be my last memory.

Remember the wind, Carolina
As it caressed your auburn hair,
The morning I first saw you
Dreaming in the sun splashed air.

Cradle me gently, Carolina
Let my heart beat once more with yours.
Fill me up with your essence,
As my soul soars over the moors.

Dream of the days, Carolina
When our love was fresh and new,
And I could see forever shining
In your eyes of bonny blue.

Lay me to rest now, Carolina
Weep no more for me.
I've honored the vow I made you,
Til death do us part, you see.

Do not cry for me, Carolina.

Such an ache you portray here Paula. An excellent write as always, and yes good to see you writing again!

Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets.  ~Arthur Miller
