As Time Goes By

As time goes by, I see you grow and flourish as a beautiful being who will always love me.

As time goes by, I see you smile and frown, laugh and cry, love and lose.

As time goes by, I love you more and never want to let you go.

As time goes by, I see the pain that you are too proud to show.

As time goes by, I need you more, and see you less.

As time goes by you live apart from my world, as if a fictional character in my life’s narrative.

As time goes by, I miss you, I need you, and love you.

As time goes by, you disappear into the oblivion of time, and all I have is the memories.

As time goes by, as time goes by, as time goes by.
