Recollections~ (edited re-post)
Later, as I recall this night
Well, very easily I know I might
Forget how the air was sharp with cold
And heavy with hunger for summer's gold
I'll forget the thoughts we longed to re-tell
Where the out-line of two lone shadows fell
Or how the new-moon, frozen in the sky
Was too far away to observe you and I
I might forget how the breezes died
To honor the hour where we cried
But I will never forget the blue of your eye
Or the way your voice broke, when you whispered…
...good-bye
