They say there is a reason

They say time will heal;

Neither time or reason

Will change the way I feel.

Gone are the days

We used to share;

But in my heart

You are always there.

The gates of memories

Will never close;

I miss you more than

Anybody knows...

Love and miss you everyday

Till we meet again

Always & Forever
