Remember Me

sitting here alone at this table
wind gently stirring through the empty house
the breeze so cool and gentle, reminding me of you
it seems so long already that I kissed your cheek farewell
wished you bon voyage and turned my back away
you didn't see me turn again
and watch you depart towards your homebound journey
i couldn't steal away without one final, stolen glimpse
of your form, leaving.

your walk was steady and unfaltered
fascinating.
I respected your desicive stance, but curiously wondered how you did it so well.

so i sit here quiet at this table
hearing life outside the wall and only the clock ticking
reminds that life goes forward, sometimes all too fast
and i sit here recollecting our moments of weakness
and i sit here recollecting our greater moments of power
and moments of unspoken truths

goddess, you called me
a diamond in my ruff, i call you out
play god to my woman's form and
take my breath away

dance a spiral dance around in circles

love is something we crave in our lives
attention will never be positive enough, plentiful
the wind carries a scent of summer love and attention
that i will not soon forget

dance this dance with me
ride the winds and sing your songs of praise and hope
remember me

i hold the pentacle that once you sent
charged with energy, alive with friendship across the distance
no one may judge what ecompasses our spirits, what brings two people together
i faintly smile and tuck the metal to my skin where once your lips have kissed

you're missed.

dance this dance with me
ride the waves and sing your voice with pride and no regrets
remember us
remember me.
