Memory
I saw you again yesterday
It's been so long since you and I
I'd almost forgotten the way you smelled
The way I felt protected in your shadow
I'd almost forgotten it all
The rage is still here
the anger, the bitterness
None of it has left me
Although you did
but you never really belonged to me
it was all an imagining
all a dream
of you and me
and perfection
