Love Poem: Forget You Not

Forget You Not

Times has passed 
and seasons changed 
but here you always remain 
always eternally the same 
and always just out of range 
It may seem strange 
that after all these years 
I can't stop shedding these tears 
and you keep coming back 
never leaving me alone 
yet tragically colder than stone 
and i am alone 
though you are standing here 
so distant yet so near 
nothing but a specter i cant reach 
a ghostly memory 
the lesson your memory tried to teach 
that to love someone not in love 
is a foolish thing indeed 
my soul will always be in need 
and my eyes always cast back and above 
to the love i could not have 
to the woman i miss more than any other kiss 
i love you still 
though i lack the will 
to walk on and move on 
i guess it's just my lot 
you are my heart's ceaseless comfort 
that lonely pain stabbing in memory 
the lovely and beautiful 
love 
Forget You Not
