I STOOD BESIDE THE RIVERBANK by Joanne Boyle

"I STOOD BESIDE THE RIVERBANK"
by Joanne Boyle

I stood beside the river bank

and watched you float away.

I held on to a piece of you

but I knew you couldn't stay.

And then there was a hundred

or maybe even more,

so many magical moments

rose above the shore.

I saw your favourite dance

as the waves played your tune.

I was mesmerised by it all

and I knew you'd be home soon.

I shouted out your name

it got lost in the light breeze,

I told you to turn around

in fact I shouted please.

I didn't want to leave you

but I knew you had to go.

My love Swam within my memories

underneath a moonlit glow.

I now watch you from the river bank

and our memories go in-between.

A Life is never lost

whilst reliving all that's been.
