Memories linger still

Missing you
Missing your smile
Missing the sensations
God; it's been a while
How long have I mourned?
How much longer will it be?
Till I feel the quiet
Down here beside the sea

These memories still linger
And every now and then
I feel the trickle of my tears
Yes; they flow down to my chin
Though it's been a few years
I know time has not stood still
The sun continues rising
The moon shows her face at will

My children are all grown mum
My grandchildren live so far away
My days though no longer lonely
My life continues on its way
I walk on in this bright sunshine
I fill up my nights as I play
And the world continues turning on its way
I must watch these edges
Slowly begin to fray...
