Sweet Surrender

Soflty the leaves of memory fall Slowly she stoops to gather them all Recalling each time she cast a glance Her thoughts leading her into a trance She remembers the day it all began When the sunlight danced of his golden tan When his rough hands spoke of tumoiled times When his weathered face broke into a smile How rapidly the days flew by Effortlessly passing with a sigh She remembered the time it all ended With a single blow to her heart unmended He left her forever without so much as a word or two Silently the tears crept down, wetting her face anew
