A Song of Sadness

By: Dyan L Gomes

Laying here in my bed tonight,
I dream of the way things seem to be.
I am so alone now that you're gone.
Why is it I miss you so dearly?

Remember how we laughed together?
How and when you promised me forever?
Or that kiss how long it seemed?
Or maybe they were all things I had dreamed?

I smile when I think of the times we shared,
The tender touches showing how much you cared.
And every time you would cry,
Killing my heart when I never knew why.

Oh how I miss the sweetness of your voice,
The caress of your hand giving me no choice.
But to fall in love and feel so free,
To be in love with you and you with me.

I have nothing more than to honor you now,
A fallen tear wiped from my brow.
A refreshing memory of how I remember you best,
Since you left me I now have my own "Song of Sadness."
