What dreams may come; they darken still Memories tear at my weakened will Your face, your joy, tell me true You hold that he is the one for you My heart, my soul, the constant ache For opportune chances I did not take Two years gone by since my confession A scorched eternity of loving obsession Each day regret for choices made For vows I kept when I should have strayed So I face love left unspoken An empty pedestal reluctantly broken Someday we'll stand eye-to-eye, toe-to-toe With passion tempered, I'll need you to know - My focus was clear, my intentions were true - All said & done, I believe you were the one - Because my life, my world, my soul - Are nothing without you . . . I miss you, My Love.

Unbroken Regret
What dreams may come; they darken still Memories tear at my weakened will Your face, your joy, tell me true You hold that he is the one for you My heart, my soul, the constant ache For opportune chances I did not take Two years gone by since my confession A scorched eternity of loving obsession Each day regret for choices made For vows I kept when I should have strayed So I face love left unspoken An empty pedestal reluctantly broken Someday we'll stand eye-to-eye, toe-to-toe With passion tempered, I'll need you to know - My focus was clear, my intentions were true - All said & done, I believe you were the one - Because my life, my world, my soul - Are nothing without you . . . I miss you, My Love.
