A Tear And A Smile

Shadowed by past memories,

I soak in the soft mist,

reliving the magical moments,

under the tree where we first kissed.

I remember gazing into your hazel eyes,

caressing your hair, feeling the soft strands,

and I can still see two sets of footprints,

indelibly carved into the sands.

As we looked across the vast ocean,

wrapped in dreams divine,

I held you in a close embrace,

feeling you'd always remain mine.

But as you left my arms,

I knew you just couldn't stay,

with a final, lingering kiss,

into the darkness, you walked away.

I return from my journey to yesterday,

as I stand alone on our beach,

I smile at my love from long ago,

and shed a tear at a love so out of reach.
