Analysis of 'I Think of Thee'

When I remember thee—my soul is unrestful, And my thoughts are adrift in the deep of the past; Thy image, like a ghost, comes sparingly, Haunting my mind with a bittersweet contrast. Thou art the melody of a distant song, Whispered softly in the quiet of my mind; A memory that time cannot prolong, A love that the years have left behind. How tenderly I think of thee, my dear, Even now in the silent hours of the night; Thy face in my heart is forever clear, A beacon of hope, a shining light.
