Song Quote, “Your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire.”
DISTANT FIRES
© By: Richard L. King
Misty eyes, life expires
broken heart, loves desires
Move along, love is missed
seeking now, you reminisce
Another look, another dance
smiling face, second chance
Time passes, companion tried
kindly heart, love denied
Move again, evade the miss
seeking now, newfound kiss
Additional look, another chance
lots of fun, no romance
Tangled sheets, pillow talk
not a fit, take a walk
Multiple looks, chances taken
wishful thinking, sadly mistaken
False hope, false starts
broken promises, damaged hearts
Senior years, seeking still
time is short, low on will
Computer pop-up, experiment tried
there she was, unable to hide
Ten years later, still a unit
the songs a hit, no need to tune it
Misty eyes, distant fires
refurbished heart, loves desires

Am I The Only One 
I lost my husband after more than 37 years together. It’s been 18 years and I miss him as much, if not more, as I did when he first died. My best friend, confidant, defender, lover, and husband.
