This Is the End

I wish I could remember more details of
that final day. They have long since been blown from my memory like
the white, cottony seeds of a dandelion. I can still recall the scent
of your skin and the taste of your lips, but the words you spoke and the
promises I made are long gone. I believed we would out last them all.
The joke was on us, they are still laughing and loving on the ocean
waves. We can only sit on opposite shores and be spectators of the care
free life we once had.
I don't blame you sweet friend. You were always there. Something happened along the way that caused our vessel to crash into the rocky enclave. The crash was mighty and swift but the heartache severe. With no one to blame, I cursed the moon and the stars. Time has passed. Life moved on. The scars have healed but still visible to all. I will never be the same. Perhaps that's for the best, since I can no longer have you. I have to be someone else now, for you still have the old me. Put me in a box, on a tall, tall shelf. On a warm summer evening take me down and look at me, that's when the healing will begin.
