My Fondest Memory
The twinkling shine of dark eyes
Chestnut locks, effortlessly waved
Like the tides of the ocean
Practicing yoga on rainy patios
While cigarette ashes burn my skin
Morrissey sung the songs of woe
I crumbled at your feet
Your lips on every fallen tear
Echoing duets fall to deafened ears
Yet, never admit defeat
I can almost remember
The warmth of your hands
The breeze of summer air
I fell in love with nature
When you're not there
Retrospect turned longing
Your green-thumbed lover's eyes glow
It matches the moon on winter nights
I lost my desire for your flesh
My heart shatters more for show
Those days raced by, an open door
I shook in my place
My memories remained pure
An escape to space
The gap tooth smile on your face
My fondest memory
