~ Dearest ~

Dearest, I'll still miss you ~

When ten years have passed us by;

And I'll catch glimpses of you from

The corner of my eye ~

I'll turn on impulse just to see

Someone I took for you ~

There seems no valid purpose in

The things I used to do.



I wonder that the sun can shine

Or that the earth can turn ~

I wonder how life goes ahead

When all I do is yearn

For one more day, on hour, one touch

Again...your blue eyes shining!

I realize my life is spent

In hours of earnest pining.



I will always, always, mourn you,

Always miss your precious ways ~

Always I’ll be yearning for

Those dear, sweet yesterdays ~

My heart will never fly again

Until your face I see ~

And always you’ll be number one...

Most precious memory.
