Of two lovers

I  like going to see the sea
The salty, rippling waves.
I like going just you and me
Sands and cliffs with caves.

I liked riding in the car
The forest was quite near.
I loved being where you were
The trees were  old and dear.

I liked going to ancient towns
See how beauty’s born
I liked  going in study brown.
I liked a ram’s  horn.

England’s hills and dales we roamed
Up mountains we did climb.
Now the Lord has taken you home..
When will be my time?

Will I never see your smile
On a pale and sandy shore.?
How you loved and for a while
You came in my door.

Then your heart was worn away
When you saw my scars.
But they say one happy day
There’ll be no more wars.

Even in our human form
Alien life can grow.
Of two lovers,one’s forlorn,
And it shall be so.

I would not wish to go the first,
Leave you pale and thin.
Of two choices one is worse.
The Lord wants you within.

So sail away ,my lover dear
Sail into the deep
I took you down to  river near.
So, alone I weep.

I send  you all my memories
I send you all my thoughts
And I know, whatever is,
You were  whom I sought.

You caught me up,you put me down
I don’t know where I be.
But I will smile and I will frown
I don’t know if I’m me.
Losing,losing,losing  you,
Losing  our  dear life.
Losing,losing,losing you
Am I still your wife?

 

I’m not me as you’re not here
Who have I become?
But I’ll live, despite my fears.
My life is not  yet done.

 

I lost a leg,I lost a hand
I lost my heart and soul.
Pray for me my lover and
I may then be whole.

Look at me,from where you be.
Look at me again.
When you look,whom do you see?
I’m in the lion’s den.
