“For the last ten years”,
As intoned by Kenny Rogers.
“It’s been quite a trip”,
For a lot of things happened.
I’ve been to a lot of places,
But I knew not about your activities,
Nothing I heard about you,
But I never forgot your face.
Now, ten years have gone,
And there’s vagueness in me.
Would there be an opportunity-
That we’ll bump each other and see?
I kept you in my thoughts, until one day,
Someone had whispered to me.
A whisper that gave me life,
And told me that you’re alright.
I know we’ll come upon again,
And when that time comes,
I will kiss and hug you tight,
For in ten years I kept you in my heart.
Having not make known for a decade,
You may no longer recognize me,
And if so, I will open my heart,
For you to see that you’re inside.
