I hardly think of you anymore
Unless I am rushing out the door
And seasonal colours take me by surprise
Like the first time that I saw your eyes.

Thoughts of you no longer flood my days
Except when my face feels the sun's rays
Or it turns cloudy, rains or snows
You made each day grand....I suppose.

Memories now seldom haunt my nights
Only when alone...I turn off the lights
Then that vacant space beside me chills
No longer filled with passion's heat and thrills.

No, my mind's not rattled by your name
Just when I cry and need someone to blame
My life's too full for tea and sympathy
Yet, I have wondered some - Does he think of me?

I wonder the same things too, at times. Nicely done but so sad....

...does he think of me...

and if so, how so?
With regret?
Longing?
Relief?

Remorse?

Ah yes...sometimes we have to wonder.

Feelings and questions that I have had, but never put into the words that you have managed to do so beautifully.

'i hardly think of you...do you think of me?' - - ah, what an honest contradiction...and ripe for poetry! Well done!

Why, thankyou James! That's a wonderful compliment coming for one who writes romance so well.

A most beautiful write here, dear Lady.

And, I think, it is a sure bet that he does think of you ... often ... and so it goes.

I feel tears in my eyes with this one...but I would never let him know I shed a tear over him.

WONDERFUL WRITE!
