Saturday Picnic - Regents Park

Memories

One day all this but memories

Of the times we had

Things we did

Things we said

How we laughed

and shrieked

& got drunk.

How you stole my cigarettes

and begged me

for my lighter!

Memories, all but memories

How we celebrated this crazy thing

called Life

In the sunrise of our youth
In the ascendancy of our powers

Memories

One day all but memories

This Miracle

Of a beautiful life.

How I love you!
Though you sometimes hurt me so.
