"You"

"YOU"



Memories of you...

they flood my consciousness still...

like dew drops on misty leaves....

it was only yesterday...

you taught me to smile...

now when I cry....

where art thou???

But then...of course...

you never really stop loving someone...do you???

you merely put on cobwebs of time...

you run..faster ...each day...

you hide...

from yourself?

ha..

one hope burns inside still...

you will pick up the phone and call...

for old time's sake...

perhaps...



I know you

better

than

yourself...



perhaps.

if you had

ta...ken the rose that day..

who knows...



but for now...

no regrets..

just a deep longing...

to hear your voice...

to see your face...

to hold your hand...

and push the "pause" button ...

on the cruel...walls of time...

You took away..

with you...

more than my being....

perhaps you will

never realise...

what it feels...



perhaps you will...

who knows...

time will not turn back....



perhaps ..

what I have lost..

you have gained...

perhaps..

in our old age...

you will see yourself..

through my eyes...



perhaps you will

"see" me..



hope floats on a tiny leaf .....

in this tumult called life...

...stay afloat..

perhaps...we can beat the tide.....
