I REMEMBER
By Roland E. Williams
How often I played your song
Soon I had made it also mine
I could never wish for a better one
And how often I thought of you
Your smile, it made you
As much as you made it
I remember your fragrance
It still smothers all others
I remember your first kiss
A stolen moment of desire
I remember our first time
Both incapable of waiting
I have never found the words
To describe that moment
And I never will, will I?
To date, it is still alive
Perpetually replaying
No thought stronger
Nothing lasting longer
I remember your adoration
So incomparably complete
I remember little good
Only you could expand
To life-size importance
And I remember a few bad
You condensed to insignificance
I remember my reasons
For leaving you
How petty they’ve seemed since
