Dying Embers

I’m forgetting your face and your smile, I try to recall the shape of your eyes. You appear in my mind for a while, But you fade away, everything dies. I’m forgetting the tone of your voice And the way you said to me “Hello!” Come to feel what I feel, and to rejoice, And renew all that happened years ago. So, don’t delay, come to me here now With the setting sun, or a starry night, With a drop of rain caressing my brow, With the wind, or the still, falling twilight. Don’t let lonely days separate us. Arrive To kindle a fire in my heart anew, I’ll bend over dying embers to revive The fading flame and my memories of you...
