Fading away

Fading away

I love her and she loves me forever,
our love therefore will end never,
but she went and left me alone,
now it’s so quiet at my home.

When I close both my eyes,
sometimes she will arise
and take me back in time,
to compose for me a rhyme.

I melt when I hear her poems for me,
I want her voice than forever to be.
But I know she will fade away,
because she cannot stay.
