Remembrance*
Oh, I remember it yes,
Oh, I remember it well,
may I see the sun searing leaves,
can I see the moon mocking trees,
I remember your voice, and your rage,
I remember it well, my heart in a cage,
I remember writing all this in some long lost page,
In a book, oh I remember that book,
All those memories,
that you suddenly took,
Just know what you did to make me look,
Deprived that precious book from all my love,
Never gave me a chance, to show you that I was only a dove,
But you never looked back to see me there,
Never even asked why I was always there,
Oh I remember…remember it all,
It was like trying to climb over a wall
but I knew I never had a chance and would fall,
Those sweet little melodies,
Those eternally lost remedies,
All those broken memories,
That day you ran into me in college,
Knowing I didn’t have any knowledge,
About being loved or finding any,
And there you stood with plenty,
Why did I ever look upon your face,
I cannot figure out why this is so hard to trace,
Remember all the things you did,
Was I only, to you, a bid,
Was I only there to please your soul,
All that money you spent,
Did it ever occur that my love, to you, was only rent,
Rent for all that money you spent on my frocks,
Why didn’t you just buy me some clocks.
So at least I would be able to measure our time together, and apart.
Just remember what you did to my heart,
Those stolen smiles that held all my hope,
You took them away,
knowing I was not able to climb that steep slope,
On my own, yet you did,
Oh, I remember it yet,
Oh I still remember…that day we first met,
And what you said, that first time we met,
Do you recall, that moment I remember so well,
No, I don’t think you do, all you cared about was you,
And yet, still here,
I remember it so well,
When you fell,
fell into the cold grave that you so truly deserved,
But I didn’t forget you,
I kept all my time with you preserved,
And yet, I cannot forget you, and I never will,
And I never questioned why you were there,
Always there, just by my side, I remember
Oh I remember…so clear as a bell
I still remember it all so well,
After all those times, after all these tears,
I cannot forget you, I never can, I never will, for you
Yes, you, are the only one that made me feel loved in all my years.
