The Thought of You

How gentle the thought of you Caresses my mournful heart As linger memories so few Since we’ve been torn apart Life can be unkind and callous We did treasure every moment But truly it was bitterly vicious How our world changed by one incident You and I both had dreams Lady luck we did implore Presumptuous by no means Fond memories live on evermore Life for me now veils dark's undertone Yet in my loneliness I feel not so alone Submitted on May 4, 2020 for contest BRIAN'S CHOICE 3 sponsored by BRIAN STRAND - RANKED 3RD Originally posted on January, 2018
