Loss

They walked hand in hand down the line Sadly they would run out of time Promises made only yesterday Now those dreams just fade away A love that had only just begun Now ends sadly as one life is done No longer will they share a kiss Or enjoy each other with eternal bliss No longer will loving arms embrace Or gaze upon each others face Once was is now in the past Only cherished memories to last. 1/25/14

Such a sad little gem this is, Phyllis. I am glad to finally see this one. Thanks for visiting so many of my poems. Wish you had many for me to visit as well. But I see you have one more new one for me. Awesome.
