Love Recast, Forever Vanishes

Love Recast, Forever Vanishes

With you gone, the orange sun sets just to die
don't ask me silly questions why
Is it not enough that I bled for your touch?
never asking for joy too much!
That I once sat silently watching you sleeping
each and every heartbeat reassuring me that you live!
Your love secrets I gathered into my safe keeping,
giving you all I ever had to give!

With you gone the earth sits barren and crying,
a cry so very dark and shrill
Dark clouds descend- Announcing our love dying,
as fate hurries to hand me the bill
Surely you know I'll never dare to pay,
for sadness, heartache and misery so very deep
You sent- nothing left to say,
then walked away knowing my spirit would weep!

A new day has now arrived to gently recast
to another, the love you promised to forever last.

Robert L. 09- 21- 1999

Still have my small journal , so I resurrected this 
one.. 
I hope that it pleases ....

Thank you Tim. We live and learn. Memories are a reminder to warn us of mistakes we are oftentimes about to repeat.
