Only in Memories

Touching your cheek on this screen

it’s all I have left of you it seems;

I'm losing my mind wondering why

you felt you had to leave and say goodbye.

Somewhere you float like a ship lost at sea;

torn from your moors so you could be free.

Your freedom though comes at a consequence;

painfully not realizing it was at an expense.

You I thought I would never lose,

but what lured you was hard to refuse.

Regardless of your choice I love you still and

pray you come back but probably never will.

Every day this pain I try to hide

so people can't see what’s inside;

all the memories I keep of you;

it seems there is nothing more I can do.

I tried and gave it my very best

yet you only made me second guess.

If you could have of only realized

how much I truly sacrificed.

I hope you find yourself one day;

it seems you're throwing your life all away,

so many things you could have done;

those chances for you have come and gone.

As my touch on this screen lingers across,

I imaginarily wishing to feel what I’ve lost.

My love for you will never relinquish it seems;

For I see you every time when I dream.
