Fade

The whispers of your memory  
Beckon to my soul  
Wishing for one more touch  
The kind only you and I know  
Your voice is so familiar  
I still believe in it every day  
But it seems as though your love  
Is slowly fading away  
Time is not a friend  
And neither are the miles  
They keep the absence permanent
Growing distant all the while
I now understand when you said  
"We both know we'll never be together"  
I guess I didn't want to believe in  
A future without you forever.
