I write of sadness

I write of pain

The never ending sorrows

This world so freely offers

I write of you

I write of your love

That showers down

With amazing grace

You are the voice in the night

Calling me out of my secret woes

The beauty I keep

Deep within me I would go

In my darkest tear filled nights

Pure passionate love I carried

Spoken of secretly

Between me and my soul

The soul that longed for you

That cried with me

For what used to be

A time thought lost forever

Happiness I felt with you

Buried deeply in my body

For my mind to replay

And fall in love over and over

I love you Mrs Nadine Cole
