My Heart Remembers You Fondly©

By Felina Silver Robinson

There is something special about true love

Love itself can come from many and belong to many

Love sometimes has no face

It’s just a feeling you don’t want to be left without

When someone is in it you know it

If you are without it makes you long for it

When I first saw you I knew you would be mine forever

My heart couldn’t allow me to be without you

It ached as if broken when we dared to part

If I thought for a moment that I didn’t belong

My heart sent me straight back to you

As our days turned to nights and nights into mornings

Our hearts worked at bonding

While our minds set to planning

All that we would do together

We’d built a house with our very own hands

And filled it with pieces of you and pieces of me

Of memories past, present and those yet to be

Life passed with those we loved

All passing through the house of love built by two

Hearts held together forever

But one day when I wasn’t looking

You slowly slipped away

You were gone in a flash and my heart was still aching

Aching for the love you once had for me when your eyes were still open

And your heart was still beating

But here now I sit on the porch of the house that we grew old together in

Endlessly waiting for your return as my heart remembers you fondly
