. . .Again

The night is cold and dark
Nothing moves but the breeze through the trees
And your whisper can be heard
As if a ghost walked among the living
Your touch seems so real
You have gone from here and left me
all alone
in worry
in pain
in guilt
As the night grows longer
The shadows show your true form
you taunt me and tease me
But I follow nevertheless
Up and down the streets
Through the shadowed wood
I follow your voice on the breeze
Knowing all the while you left me
all alone
in worry
in pain
in guilt
Chasing you through the night
I never am able to catch up
I can see your shadow up ahead
But you never slow down for me
I push myself on
Hoping that I may reach you in time
Just to tell you how I feel
Even though you left me
all alone
in worry
in pain
in guilt
I follow you to the place where we first met
The little place that no one knows
The place where we shared most of our time
The place where I became yours
I settled down on the rock there
And remembered all the times we sat upon it
The times you held my hand
The time you left me
all alone
in worry
in pain
in guilt
Your voice sounds once more
So sweetly in my ear
You tell me everything is all right
You tell me we will be together again
I turn to find you standing there
The wind blowing all around you
I stand up and am caressed in your arms
Forgetting about the day you left me
all alone
in worry
in pain
in guilt
We stand there for a lifetime
But it made no difference to me
As long as I was with you
The world could pass on without me
You let me go and told me to wait
You say you will come again
And that we will be together soon
And there you left me
all alone
in worry
in pain
in guilt
