213. While You Were Away: Where Have You Gone?

I remember the moment clearly;
The moment when you said goodbye to me.
Quickly, you ran away
So that I would not see your tears.
Oh, how I felt that you loved me,
Loved me more than anything in all the world.
Your glances were all mine;
You ventured not to even look at another.
Your heart was one with mine;
Our dreams, our love, were all one in the same.
Your passionate sighs were soft;
More beautiful than you will ever know.
Yes, I have seen you since then,
Since you left and ran away;
Though your beautiful face,
Your warm, loving voice,
And even that wondrous smile
              All stood before me,
I have not felt the warmth of your touch,
And I cannot help but wonder
What happened to the girl who left me
Just two months ago,
For though you are here,
              She has not yet returned.......
