A walk to remember

 

Back when women wore feathers in their hair,

Back when I was young and fair,

Back when there was soft, spotless sand,

Back when we held each other’s hand. 

Step-by-step across the sand,

Fastened tightly hand-in-hand,

Moment by moment, time goes by,

The time has come to say goodbye. 

You’re leaving for a place miles away,

Unreachable like a star so far away,

Seeing you go is the purest of pain,

Will we see each other once again? 

The stains of tears you wiped away,

You whispered that all will be okay,

That kiss I wished would last forever,

Is this the last time we’ll be together?

Now time has passed and years gone by,

And buildings have now shot up the sky,

Yet it seems like just yesterday,

When you took my heart away.

Whenever I gaze upon the stars,

I see my diamond from afar,

Whenever I listen to the tide,

I hear our song that will ever abide.

A simple walk on a silent night,

Under the moonlight so clear and bright,

A walk of fragrance of love so tender,

Surely a walk to remember forever
