Memories...

Glimpses of moments passed
Of days that were truly sublime
None truly bound to last
All lost to the pressures of time

Yet through the thousands that I’ve kept
Your image seared onto my heart
Oh, the days and nights I had wept
Pieces of my soul tearing apart

Moving on to something more
Yet stuck on something long gone
It’s you my lips still call for
To you my eyes remain drawn

But, no, the truth is no longer such
No longer do I need you for love
Crave neither your smile nor your touch.
Another man I am dreaming of…

Strong, smart, brave, wise
His love knows no bound
Reaching out past the skies
He lifts me up and off the ground.
