LoveRemembered

I saw you late Thursday evening at the railway station
Still playing pretty woman games
For men with disguised names
Reminded me of our first meeting at Sarah's graduation
The day that climaxed with nothing still the same
You clasped your diploma protectively as if to make a point
While Sarah chose her gown
You pierced my weary frown
I chose the broader path as you handed me a joint
You didn't just want a change,you stole her party crown
Those snatched afternoons at the Spanish market I recall
My bursery soon was spent
Could not tell the pastor where is went
Sarah got sidelined if I thought of her at all
I no longer replied to the letters she sent
I was good at first but never meant to last
I fed you a dusty Baptist tract
To which you never did react
I held you close for fifteen dreamy months,time that passed too fast
Then you were gone,I had to settle for that fact
How I tracked you down I'd rather not reveal
When I passed you on the basement stair
I sensed you had ceased to care
The change in you was really quite unreal
I am still haunted by that vacant cocaine stare
I wrote poetry all that summer to try and dull the pain
Sarah had long gone away
To where her uncle would not say
I think of all the good times , it helps to keep me sane
I wish you will find happiness, for that I often pray

a touching write and haunting at the same time. I felt your emotions wrapped throughout the words.
