I WILL ALREADY REMEMBER YOU FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE
 
Standing on your balcony in winter I think
I will already remember you for the rest of my life.
it is too late now, I know who you are
and what you look like
and must henceforth venture through life recalling you many times
as you continue to make things burdensom by reminding yourself to me more and more
by taking me to various locations and describing to me your ....aspirations
some ancient moon smouldering above us.
I will always think of you and how it was between us
and the things you did and said
 
I will think about your ... personality and your… interests
and the specific colour of your hair and eyes
even if we have a terrific breakup and stop calling each other
I will still remember you
I will not be able to help it! You are there in my memory
like the concept of opera. Or the Simpsons theme song
Like a mist of blossoms on an air freshener commercial  
sarcastic with light
I will think of your temperament and your enthusiasms
and how you ...looked at me
I will think of all the things you told me about your life
