I Remember - Paul Holmes

I Remember

Paul Holmes 

I remember

You with the curly hair

And the goofy, prideful air.

I remember

Through that silly air,

I could see that you cared.

I remember

When you said to me

My eyes were like the sea.

I remember

That wonderful night,

Though it must not have been right.

I remember

That I was elated;

I never felt deflated.

I remember

That when I told you,

It was far too out of the blue.

I remember

You tried to show joy,

But we both knew the decoy.

I remember

You didn't want this

Because I wasn't your missus.

I remember

That beautiful smile,

The one I hadn't seen in a while.

I remember

That terrible day

When you suddenly went away.

I remember

Receiving the news

That your skin no longer had hues.

I remember

I spent many days

Stumbling around in a haze.

I remember

Me wondering why.

Why did we have to say goodbye?

I remember

I couldn't let go,

But I don't have to; now I know.

I remember

You here in my heart,

So we don't have to be apart.
