tell me the way
forever was started
with a wink of an eye
a slow letting go
pretending that always
was a place we were going
heaven discovered
a lifetime ago

tell me your story
sounded so simple
of stars in the darkness
mornings broke down
help me remember
the path you were taking
before love surrendered
a choice for us
now

teach me the lesson
was once but a memory
warming your lips
the taste of a kiss
tell me
I wonder –
the worth of confession
tell me of another
you loved me
like this

. . .
