Remembered Love

She haunts my every waking dream, I see
Her pure sky eyes each time I close my own
And still each day I see her stand before me,
Not mortal flesh but in my mind alone.
Now with each breath I breathe a little less,
Oh love, my seared soul still cries for you
Not just for days we shared I must confess,
Though days they were that bore a love so true.
Remembered love is not forgotten love,
Unless we let it fade as years pass on.
Look heavenward for the lone mourning dove,
Once seen you’ll know my heart is not withdrawn.
Velvet lips who’s kiss melt me like ice
Evermore I’ll kiss once met in Paradise.
