In this life or the next

 

I see you in my dreams,

Oh so real it seems,

I touch your face,

You still look the same.

Your cheeky grin,

Beautiful eyes.

You have such a kind face,

Matches your kind heart.

Oh why was I so unsmart?

I pushed you away,

As far as I could,

For I was not ready for something so deep,

Even though I can see now, you were the one to keep.

It’s been a year,

Even though here and there,

I still shed tears.

But life goes on and I must go on,

To new beginnings, new loves.

 

I wish you all the best,

And I hope to see you,

In this life or the next.

I'm waiting!!!!

Nice.
Heartfelt and honest. I'm sure you'll see him again. Hopefully in this life, rather than the next.

Cheers Kevin

Perhaps you want to take a U Turn Joanna.
I like the simple, honest rendition.

Keep them coming!
Raj
