your beauty always sparkles

whether night or day

and I ask myself

can I come and play?

like we did that time

a long time ago

grey spots in the sand

feelings gone that were there before

but really I’ll never forget

all the beautiful things you wore

oh how I miss you

and hold you dear

all the memories, always near

in the end I’ll never forget

the love that I gave to you

and how strongly I feel for you

the sunlight obstructs my view

of that beauty which lies before me

I can see the sunlight in your eyes

why must it disguise

that which I truly wish to see

as I sit on this one bench

the peace of the world at my fingertips

I can grasp it, I can breathe it in

I feel it in every inch of me

the serenity of this view

and the calmness within

when I think of lavender

I remember that lovely colour

and the scent of angels

that childhood garden

all the dreams I shared with it

lavender always in memory

the innocence of childhood

not knowing what lies before me

living in the moment, enjoying the view

no concerns, only love

the rarity of pure happiness

which my soul now yearns for
