I did not have the chance to say, "Goodnight" to you last night
For a while I tried to telephone but the line was dead
The feeling inside me tears at my heart and I can't rest.......
....Orchid Lady I miss you so much.
Today, I have not felt like going out for my daily walk
I can't go near the wishing well or stand on the wooden bridge
The forest walking track is far from my thinking.......
....right now I can only sit here and think of you.
It is strange how important things affect a person.......
....being unable to talk to you has made me feel so listless
Until I can get through to you; my little world lies in tatters
Even the stormy wind has now lost its raging sting.
I can hear the voices of people walking past the house
But I can't see the people at all, not even a shadow
Until I can contact you today nothing will seem to be right
Orchid Lady, as I have told you many times -
I need you in my life.
