You Went Away – a poem by Albert Beeson

Albert Beeson – photo taken November 1984

You went away.  I kept it cool
I saw your shadow in the pool
Often I sighed.  Sometimes I cried
I had to live.  I must not die.
Deepness of Love from there to here
Brought misty eyes into the clear
My arms if weak would gain the strength
Once more to hold my darling wench
