Forgiveness

Forgive me, now that love is gone And that long years obscure the sun! When mem’ries fill my eyes, I see That our short time is nearly done.

Deceitful Time shall close your eyes While whispering his clever lies, And I will stay behind and weep Until his will my own defies. Find my poems and published poetry volumes at www.eton-langford.com
