Changes We Remember

We would sit nearby with a smile

‘yours or mine’

I might add, yours now a grimace

once we made endearing,

tonight I am only alone.

Days ahead we did not think

only knew the now

if I could reach and touch your hair

and feel you move

nothing mattered anywhere.

Tonight while a favorite melody

helps emanate sweet solace

his sorrowful glance

would hide well again

in shadows of time.

For it is the change we remember

will gather always an eternal following.
