Memories of Him
Darkness embraces me
my freezing body goes to rest
I close my eyes:
I see him there
His eyes they shine, they glow
His black eyes shine for me.
I walk along the empty streets
a rainy veil covers the world
I think about those times we had,
those times we had that summer
the veil – it lifts; His face – it figures
He's smiling, smiling just for me now.
I'm at that place,
that certain place where we first met
I sit and dream:
He's standing there
He's reaching out, reaching for me
“Come, my love, my one and only girl”
I get up – shaking
walk towards Him,
His arms are still outstretched
Just as I dare fling myself into
dare hold Him close, kiss Him, too
Just then – He vanishes forevermore.
{I just wish he were still alive and I had him back, finally, after all these years... I don't think I've been so down for quite some time now...}
