My Minds Eye

I've been dealt a losing hand, and I know it much to well-

The days gone by in heaven and the last days I've been in hell.

I've cried so many dreadful tears, the nights they never end-

It seems this torture goes on and on,I've lost my love-

My friend.

It seems as though you should still be there,

Beside me like before,

But alas in true reality, this time for me is no more.

I've came full circle with this moment in my life-

And moved it clean away,

Not by choice, perhaps by fate?-distanced from me stay.

But when I think of you my dear, how deep my love goes through-

You'll be with me forever-

In my minds eye so true.

You'll walk beside me- heart to heart -to lose you never again,

My dearest, dearest sweetheart,

My truest, truest friend.

Not in unforgiving earth, nor in miles apart-

But in my very special place, deep inside my heart.

So, when I think I've had enough and can't take anymore,

I look back into yesteryear and think of days before.

The day it was, I can't recall-but my mind the memory fixed,

The day you came into my life when I was only six.

Moving on into my life and found another friend

Someone to talk to and comfort me and be there in the end.

And even though I left all that I have left,

I will still forever be-

Waiting for you in my mind's eye, I'm holding on just for me.

But as I sit and pine for you, I know to wish you well-

For I've left you with my greatest gift...

As I bid you both farewell.
