So Long Ago

So Long Ago Lyrics from our song linger, lovingly, within the air. I hear your voice clearly as if you were standing by my side. I hear words so often spoke as we held one another close, "I'll love you forever, into eternity" your husky voice gently echos. I feel your touch, as fine whiskers brush against my cheek & the scent of familiar cologne lightly drifts around my face, reminding me of how you once made me feel. Afraid to open my eyes, as I know you have already gone. A faint whimper from another room brings back reality, here, now! A blue eyed baby girl, a blonde toddler boy still need me, no matter your choice. They, too, were part of our "forever into eternity". Those once felt feelings, now sadness, tears. Throught the pain, two tiny hearts bring joy to my broken heart, my life. A part of an"eternity" you will never know , as you romance another soul to surrender to a surreal false tenderness.
