Youth’s magic now eluding grasp
Ancient my years, time’s bitter wrath
Locks once thick and wavy brown
Now silver strands upon the ground
Eyes keen that captured every hue
Dimly seek one last view
As memory fades and nothing lasts
Have I forgotten all that’s passed?
Not all is gone, I’ll not forget
The way we loved, the way we kissed
And in these years remaining few
I am so blessed, having shared them with you
How sweet these days of now, not then or when
What matters most, what lives within
Its love you see, it has always been
Two hearts as one, best lovers, best friends
