Anguish

Anguish As years speed by; I let my memory Recollect the vision of you Your face and your looks Your color and your features Your words and your smiles Your stares and your angers Your walks and your rests Your sleeps and your dreams That upon a hill set to eternal rest That you are gone Me and my mind Self and my soul Label it a lie Seem all in collusion That you come into my arid days Like dews and winds from an oasis Springing hopes and faiths to my stinging eyes That I am building castles in air And chasing you everywhere Sobbing and cursing and falling and rising And stumbling pitifully on to nowhere And that you are gone And there is nothing there The truth echoing everywhere...........
