Watching and listening to Maryanne Faithful
in a YouTube video
singing her break out hit
when she was in her early twenties
in the sixties
the song, As Tears Go By
my heart captivated by her youthful beauty
my ears enchanted by her voice
and I always loved that somber song
but now I’m becoming somber
because her youth, her great vocals,
and her beauty are gone
tears begin to well up in my eyes
because Maryanne Faithful
is no more:
December 1946 – 30 January 2025
RIP beautiful Lady, beautiful soul.
