Gone Not Forgotten

GONE NOT FORGOTTEN

Gone……..not forgotten, it lives forever on,

Long……...in coming, it’s done but it lingers on.

I didn’t want to come face to face with an empty heartache,

But that’s the way I guess it goes.

Try so hard to put back in place all the pieces left me,

Why must I do it alone?


Gone……..not forgotten, the memory runs deep.

Long….…..in passing, I’ll see you in my sleep.

With every dream I have you’ll be there in the back to haunt me,

Just like a pirate ghost of yore,

Robbing me of the treasure that I once held within me,

And now must try to restore.

Gone…….but not forgotten, oooh…………….
