Abbey-Lane

You were my friend until you went away
I cry when I think of you
But you are running with others of your kind
With no boundaries and free

You were my soul mate until you went away
I could confide to you everything
You listened but never judged me
We were so different yet so the same
In our world together

You were my companion until you left me
You were loyal your whole life
The tender moments we shared never to be forgotton
The tears I shed you must hear

You were my  precious Abbey until you went away
Your bright brown eyes grew lifeless and indifferent
Until we meet again know I miss you
My dear Abbey

'...your bright brown eyes grew lifeless and indifferent,' a magnificent phrase! Bittersweet and wistful. A sad and lovely poem. Well done Linda! Best wishes, Keith
