Years have gone by since you left
Day and night I think of you
You keep haunting my dreams
Making me think
That you are still here with me
I wake up to find
That it is just a dream
And you are gone
I cannot forget the moment we were together
The jokes we made which make me laugh
Now they only make my heart sink for you are not
Here to share them with me
Sometimes I feel that you will be back
To laugh, talk and joke
The things you loved the most
Make me shed tears
The things you gave me
Remind me of you
Gone though you have
Leaving me alone
I will always cherish memories of you
Your loving care
Will always live with me
Until I also go
(from the book "Along Memory Lane" by Maria Lena)
well done Maria...
