In The Mist of Another Day

I look around and for just a moment,
I feel that the world is all mine,
I turn my thoughts back to yesterday,
As I daydream of another time.

I feel a shiver go through me,
As I think of the fog and the mist,
I pull back the tears I hide,
And feel the love, I know, exist.

I see the cloud darken around,
I feel the fear that wash over me,
As I felt the world was totally mine,
In my deepest ,thoughts so innocently.

I feel my tears, as though it were rain,
Dampening my smile, with a chill,
Then I return to the present,
And realize, this moment is for real.

I glance at pictures that mark my memory,
I gently smile, as I look the other way,
For I feel the teardrops dampen my smile,
As I turn my thoughts to yesterday.

I count the time, till we once more meet,
We'll pick up, where we left things to be,
And once again, I'll be overwhelmed,
As I smile through tears so tenderly.
