Sitting here by the shore 
Gazing a wide blue yonder
Absence and so far apart
 My heart does grow fonder

The distance stretches 
Over vast , wide and blue
Where I echo my plea
How much I’m missing you 

My heart remaining true
The same as my yesterdays 
Counting loving memories
Feelings grow in many ways

Aching with the longing 
I miss you more and more
Wish you could be here 
As the waves lap the shore

With not a cloud in sight 
Heart visions remain clear
I drift in thought of you 
Forever wanting you near 

There in space and time 
I had knelt beside the sea
Always upon my mind 
Wishing he was missing me

The white capped waves
Flowed on ocean blue
My refreshing time out
There focusing the true

Doubts were the reason
I walked beside the sea
Bright sun rays directed
Relaxing the uncertainty

The white sand displays
Where the waves dance
Today was picture clear
In viewing circumstance

Reaching the credibility
Touching a flowing tide
Waving understanding
In casting doubts aside

Natural open exposure
Me and the ocean blue
Awashed I shall return
Creating footprints new

More of your silence
Communication lapse
A mistake or failure
Or your busy perhaps

Two thoughtful words
Perhaps and maybe
Without a conclusion
I’m awaiting pensively

Time passes wistfully
Mind thought grows
Thinking of reasons
I assume and suppose

Consider my thinking
In mind thoughtfully
Many weeks elapse
Left pondering maybe

Mind of speculations
Of thoughts to view
The guessing situation
Whereabouts of you

Thoughts don’t leave
So mine have grown
Supposing on many
Of answers unknown
