On the distant horizon of yesterday

@Uootem

on the distant horizon of time
                    obscure to the sunlight of today's reasoning
                                        I once held her hand... tasted her kiss
                                                            she was my lifetime dream come true...

overwhelming recollection of that time
                    still survives in my heart
                                        for no surrogate be attained
                                                            to replace the love that I have lost.

so I walk in a dream-filled landscape
                  late into the hours of every dark night
                                        where barren coldness surrounds me
                                                            for her loving warmth has deserted this place.

in a thousand yesterdays ago, this world we shared
                  seemed so animated and so vibrant
                                        with hope and with a future of promises
                                                              then she left without saying goodbye.

My heart is still beating to the rhythm of her
                  giving me all the reason I need
                                        to still find her in my dreams
                                                            where her love is still held... and cherished.
