you can't forget when it's right in front of you

it is thanksgiving again
and i find myself looking into mirrors
through old love notes
passed affections
time spent and a life lived thus far


some words
and their damn combinations
makes the heart wrench a little bit
some of those picture shows
seem like a blink away
when in fact..
they are days of the past


i remember those toes
so very close to mine
us sharing ny air
san diego skylines
english croissants


i did want it to be forever
i really did

but forever was not on our time card
but that it happened at all right?
that it happened at all


man..
oh man
i know i'm a wierdo
and am undeserving of all the love that has and continues to flow in and out of me
but at the very least
the very tiniest
i can be grateful


bless you
bless us
bless your mother and mine
i miss you
and all those forever days
and some nights,
like this one
when we are far far far away from each other
almost like another planet away
i take out these mirrors
to give myself a squeeze
to remind me
how we held each other
that one day
so long long ago
