My love for you
will never ever ebb.
You will always stay afloat
in the vast stillness of my mind.
My memories of you
will always be swirling
in my head -
whirling,
like strands of melody
from a spinning vinyl -
through the now cold, misty halls
of my heart that once echoed
with your laughter -
with the sheer joy
of your presence.
