Yesterday was filled
With sunshine and
Frivolity like I
Was sitting at
A cafe near
The Seine people
Watching while enjoying
A sparkling aperitif
It was you
Yesterday was filled
With sunshine and
Frivolity like I
Was sitting at
A cafe near
The Seine people
Watching while enjoying
A sparkling aperitif
It was you
Sometimes in life
Even sturdy things
Like hickory or
Walnut credenzas require
A face lift
Veneer is applied
A thin often
Gilded or shiny
Layer of freshness
To give the
Appearance of newness
However that which
Allows the new
Is still old
Sturdy and strong
Such are the
Things that older
Younger relationships are
Frequently made of
I have written
More to you
Than any other
Lover ever before
I have written
About you for
You to you
I have described
You places for
You places within
You you within
Places and yet
You are incomplete
Not that you
Are I am
I will keep
Writing for you
Until the world
Knows you exactly
As I do
If you’re afraid
To do things
Remember this mantra
Had I not
Then
You never could
Once you forgive
Anger goes away
You see it
For what it
Was whatever it
Was a lesson
Or a lifetime
Or something in-between
Don’t hold onto
Things that hurt
Or anger you
Try forgiveness first
And remember that
Whatever it was
It simply was
