BURIED LOVE
To a Departed Friend
Only Across the River
SHE buried her love as in a dream, Where lonely nature reigns supreme,Where daisies nod and grasses grow,And sighing branches whisper low; She buried her love here years ago.
Ah, Time has come, and time has flown. Together the bleeding wound has grown;Yet mem'ries live, the scar is leftAnd tells forever the love bereft, The love she buried years ago.
