Lost To Me
•
when you could
no longer
look
into my eyes
I knew
you were lost to me
when you could
no longer
hold
my longing gaze
I knew
you were lost to me
when you could
no longer
softly speak
my name
I knew
you were lost to me
when you could
no longer
smile
at my tender touch
warm
to my embrace
rest your head
upon my shoulder
nor
whisper
of your love
I knew then
for certain
you
were lost to me
never again
will I
soar
above the clouds
circle
‘round the sun
dance
among the stars
fold
with you
in the crescent
of the waning moon
never again
will I
drink deeply
from passion’s fount
nor
taste
a lover’s lips
you
are lost to me
forever
lost to me
