Re-embering...
Desolent the memory I have of you by my side
So warm the memories with smile neither could hide
Time what kept us together & eventually let us crumble
I struggle with speaking the angels name I now pitifully mumble
Self-doubt follows me each day till I find a glass with something stronger than moving on with life
I still have dreams that burst at their seams imagining you as my wife...
I can't say I've moved on when I see so many with your cheerful thought
It's a part of you I guiltily remember, before we fell from our paradise, why it seems I still forgot...
The place & time were too much to handle with dreams across mountains of doubt
I believed for a time I couldn't be with you, now that same thought I wish I would live without...
Peace to your new love, & only the best could I ever hope you find
I would delude myself, I'm sure I never cross your mind
I broke something of you priceless, for another path unclear
Now, looking back haunts me more than any other fear
Take our best & throw them in a wishing well is what I wish I could do
But, this night like so many others, I only want to see you...
One more glass, & I'll see you again at a glance
So, again, today, I sip somberly at that faint unlikely chance
So, let it be my mind that finds the place we were at once more
Let my pounding head feel instead the heavy heart I hold for the one I can no longer adore...
"An old flame with such a sweet name, can bring light to such an old shame
