Where Are You My Dear?

My Dear, Where have you been hiding for so long? Were you in the past, singing your sweet love song? I looked for you in the present. I missed you in every place you went. Now I will search for you in the future. On the plains and highways, then I remember, You once told me that if you would ever depart, I would find you in that secret chamber in my heart. Note: Written for Brian Strands contest "My Dear"
