Someone I Use To Know
Someone I use to know
Seems so long ago
In time drifted away
Taking separate ways
Conversations for hours
Time to call ours
Hoping never to end
More than a friend
Words spoken sweet
Moments we meet
A song to remind
What time left behind
Life became busy
Days passing quickly
Time gradually to heal
All the heart feels
Passing on the street
A small nod and greet
Not what we were then
Strangers once again
Sad news was shared
Life is so unfair
Sickness has taken a toll
A heart of pure gold
Visited by the angel of the Lord
Life to be no more
Another sunrise never to see
Heaven, past the sunset to be
Never to forget
Nor have regret
Having one in my life
Who made me feel alive
How I hope it is known
To me all that was shown
Memories, forever to hold
My heart, never to let go
