A Bittersweet Memory

The sky at night is a lush navy blue
And I am stuck dreaming of you once more
Your image is fixed to my mind like glue
But thinking of you is never a chore

Your voice echoes in my head with a tune
Of love and joy and the sweetness of life
I loved listening to the sound in June
When fireflies cut through the air like a knife

I wish that I could see you again soon
But the light has long left your lovely eyes
I see your face when the Sun comes at noon
And I remember the lover I've lost

Your love is more than a mere memory
And your spirit will live on in my heart
I miss your warmth to guide me to the light
But nothing in the world could ever tear us apart
