In The Million Eyes (English Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(for Annelize)

In the million eyes of my memory
your face is not clear as if it is tonight adrift
are somewhere floating away from me
where your are far away with a rift

between us of a thousand miles
but in my heart love burns for you,
yet still I do remember your smiles
as if they do always stay true

where over decades some memories bare thin
and usually I do not see you like a blur frozen
where they come from deep within
as in my mind you are always brazen

while still to my world you are the core
as love does stay forever more.
