Yesterday

It pains me to know so much time has passed, yet 
my love remains. The winds and old trees 
witnesses of what we once were.
The hands of time hold me by the hand and guide 
me into forever.
Then forever was too long now it only seems to 
have fallen short, and just like that you fade out of 
my life.
I miss you, I can't help but day dream of your 
golden curly hair.
Those full lips that made me shiver as they came 
into my view.
I will always write to your memory Gloria, my 
heart swells as I realize I may never seen you 
again. 
I only rejoice in memories past when I held you 
and kissed you.
The way you looked into my soul and I into your 
eyes.
I know your heart feels for me, yet your fear 
keeps you at a distance.
Only time reminds you of me, of yesterday.
