Solitary

I have watched the moonless night passing by

I have greeted the dawn with tears in my eyes,

My love, your thoughts have kept me through the night.

I have hugged the solitary pillow to sleep

I have dealt with the darkness where shadows seem to leap

My love, your dreams have enchanted me though the night.

I have had bad times; all I needed was a hug

I have had miserable times; all I needed was to see you smile.

Love is playing its part, and I mine.

Shakespeare wrote fables on love’s tragedy and pain

I live them everyday, where does my reward lay.

My arms are withering, my lips long dried.

I long to have you by my side, I long to hear you say I love you

Time drifted us apart, I pray, time brings us together

A bad day ends, when I hear your voice, I love you the most.
