SHE

She walks through the empty park

more or less no one there

emotions surface in her

she smells the roses on her way



None smell like those she had in mind

like the ones the weekend behind

she'd picked them up then

after a lover's night, the day so bright



Why can't the time for once stand still

her cry not heard, gone with the wind

she walks on to rivers edge, forlorn

in burning thoughts of yesterday



The loves that came and went away

and by the harbor she sits down

the tears run down her cheeks by now

her heartbeat echo's flowing low



A Gull flies by, lands next to her

it brings her back to now and here

slightly she smiles, yet misses yesterday

where will she lay her head today



The lonely hours wait for her, returns

her thoughts to gone by past, internally

she wants to hug him, hold him tight

remember that very last night



Where she sat on his lap and talked

of all the things that bonded them

where is it gone the feel of safety

she feels closeness gone to eternity



She hopes that all the sadness part

smiles with the sun, though it is hard

she streches out her hands to heaven

oh Universe please hear her voice



If she could turn the clock back now

she'd do it instantly, presently, but how

yet that's a dream cannot make true

yesterday just gone and rushed away



The longing stay's deep in her soul

she feels this waste of time alone

and walks on to go and see if she can

find the silent peace somewhere within



And in the skies she looks above

the Gulls fly by with sounding clamour

was it the wind, the breeze made her

feel touched deep down below inside



She stands and looks and hugs herself

as if holding on to once deserved

he who took away her lonely hours

will he come back, she doesn't know



It's just her wish, she wants him so

want's him to laugh and hug her soul

the warmth of hands that touched within

the very secrets of her being
