Reliving the past

Reliving the past

I sit here alone, reminiscing
About everything we did,
Laughed and joked about;
All the teasing and banter,
The chaos and good cheer.
I recall those heady days,
Filled with our own madness;
How I hope they’d never end.

But alas, alas, they did end,
The unstallable did happen;
Time would stop.
After all, who was I?
Just another mere mortal,
One of innumerable billions,
Begging the All-powerful
For some alms, some more time.

Now we’re far away,
Separated by time and the seas,
The sun and the moon,
And by an expanse of land.
Now all I’m left with
Is your lingering fragrance,
The now fading memory
Of your beautiful,
The soft echo
Of your soothing voice.
