Together At Last

A thousand sunset nights Dark shadows on the ground Can't drown out the light When you were around Your voice from back then Still whispers in my ear Girl, you in my sweatshirt The thought brings a tear And though we're far away In my heart you are here I'm still praying for the day That the sun will reappear Something in this night sky Tells me the storm will pass Your almond eyes come home Sweet girl, together at last ~Lyric Man Note: This is a sad love write. A thousand nights can't heal the hurt or steal his hope. He can still see her as if those almond eyes had almost never left.

He will always feel those Almond Eyes, the love her heart holds. Even from a distance, the heart echos a soft melody. Sadness fills your thoughts, yet, so does hope. ~ Maia

Thanks Jan.. my hope was to write something fairly simple, yet that would get to the emotions inside of many who have had such a sad experience. Love is so incredible that its loss is almost unfathomable.
