Possessed Remembrance

In daydreams, my love, I see your face;

I see you in every familiar place,

Memories of you are all I’ve found—

The Ghosts of us are all around.

In shadows, I run to catch you there,

I smell the fragrance of your hair,

A dream like state, bodies moves slow,

When I catch up—it`s no one I know.

That was yesterday—now it`s all gone;

It's like an old lost lover's song.

It's true—I can only reminisce,

I long to feel your warmth—your kiss.

But that was then, and this is now,

I must forget—move on somehow,

I hope you also wonder why—

We both see stars in the same night sky.

Will there be another love?

Should I pray to God above?

Should I risk this heart of mine?

Or think of you till the end of time…
