She Writes Herself All Around Me (to the memory of a beautiful scribe)

 
 
she writes all around me  
 
“.....Summer Days and  
moonlit nights  
Through the waves  
and hold me tight  
Turn around and summer's almost gone.........”
 
 
all around us  
 
memories of a life  
in our “beautiful now”  
all but gone  
Was it truly that easy to simply move on, my love?  
 
gentle showers begin to fall  
 
“.....but all the memories  
don't really mean a thing  
Too many sad ones  
and the good ones  
were few and far between ?”
 
 
warm gulf breezes, and Summer rains against sable gray skies.....  
 
whatever happened to the beautiful love  
shared between you and I?  
The aging sun begins to fade into the night  
like the surrealistic memories of the summer love  
we made........  
 
........she writes herself  
all around me
 
 
(…...did I ever exist at all?)  
 
My hands remember the feel  
of your skin  
your soft sensuality  
"though I never laid a hand on you"  
giving to you  
my love  
my life  
my time....  
 
.....a fairy tale. Do dreams ever come true?  
 
you tattooed yourself  
upon  my heart.....forever  
singing the words, “You are my friend....”  
now gone away like the fleeting days of summer  
fading like the colors of her bold, brilliant ink  
upon paper wet with my tears,  
“holding back the years....”  
 
…...and she simply writes herself all around me
