About a lost love.

Twenty years have come and gone;
has it really been that long
since the last time that we met?
It's been a while without regret.

And now . . . here you are,
so close . . . yet so far.
I can almost touch your face
as I reach out into space.

Don't know what I must do,
I long so much to see you.
I still dream of you at night,
as if you were here holding me tight.

I awaken only to find
that it's all been in my mind;
and even though we are far apart,
you'll forever remain in my heart.
