( i will not even try to rhyme this. it's a history of a love that was not to be)

i met you in september
or was it august?
you sat across the room
from me & you smiled
with your eyes

i said this
you said that
soon we were where
we we were at

nights & days
days & nights
everything seemed writes

you were so beautiful
eyes so crytal blue
they could dance
or they could penetrate
my soul

coffee, coffee, coffee
we drank

in our eyes
in our minds
in our hearts
we sank
into
a love that was new
for u n& i

u were
more than more
u withdrew from me
because
you could see
i wasn't who i be
but,
i was who i was
'cause
that's all i could be

but
then
again'
it was u & me

was it love
was it lust
i never made love to you
guess we never had that trust

post cards you sent me
etc., etc.,
words & poems i shared
love was in the air
but not there

then...
i pressed for more
you found that door
to leave
and as for me
i drank
i sank
into lost memories...

i still have your picture
there with your cat
at christmas
when you wore your hat

i still remember
your smile
your laugh
your eyes
i still remember...

on December 17, 2003
you died

i have loved
twice in my life
once when you lived
once when you died
you were the last love
i remember you
do you remember me

i loved you...goodbye
