The Casablanca story's so
intriguing to my heart;
There's such a sett'ling does occur
as Rick and Ilsa part!.
I wished, like Rick, I could've felt
our parting...apropos;
the path the best one; right for you
so I could let you go!
And feel it was the proper course;
the one fate did intend.
I've envied Rick. He found the good
in parting from his friend.
He sensed his loss...appropriate;
the end result, hence: GAIN!
At peace he was, as she then left.
He felt no loss or pain!
And as they spoke, their final time,
he, to her, did declare,
"Our special time, we'd lost it but
we got it back. It's there!"
At last, to that, I can relate!
I feel the joy, now of
the days we shared (which had been lost!)
a time, so full of love!
So...guess I fin'lly got Rick's prize!
Our love...can sense once more.
It's real, it's stirring, it's a gift;
a treasure in my core!
It fin'lly came, that long sought wish.
Renewed was Col and Dave!
We got it back. We were rejoined
as I stood by your grave.
 |
was in my presence, then.
Our souls connected and it seemed
we were a pair again!
And this was missing, now it's back!
...am ever grateful, so!
Colette, I love you--always will
and now I'll let you go.
But gone from me you'll never be,
a pair, fore'er we are!
Your smile, I'll always notice in
the twink'ling of a star!
And fin'lly, I sincerely can
just wish you "All The Best"
Goodnight my Special Someone;
may, in peace, you always rest!
