Love Poem: Days Gone By

Days Gone By

Those three little words you
spoke to me in a whisper as 
you turned and walked away

Are the words that will make me 
smile when I think back 
remembering what it was 

Like when I was young 
and free

Now that my youth is a 
distant memory dancing in my mind

with everyone I'm known 
and loved having come
to pass

It's memories such as these 
that will keep me going as 
days turn to long cold years

I will look back on my life 
as I sit on my porch  watching 
someone else's life just start to begin
