The copper taste of her lips stays,
Sweet and unbidden upon my mouth.
Memories of the moonlight cascading
Through soft brown hair as we walked
Back to her room.  Thoughts of how
She talked of boys she desires, telling
Her girlfriends that she longs for some
Other man while she holds my trembling
Hand within hers.

Sorrows drowned and forgotten, only
Remembered by subconcious thoughts
Uncontrolled by my mind.  How long
My thoughts were bent on making her mine,
All lost among talk of a basketball player
And her longing for him.  All that remains
Is her hand upon my face, telling me
How handsome, how sweet, how good
How perfect I might be.

I am haunted by her memory.

"Ain't Got no quarrels with God, ain't got no time to grow old.  Lord knows I'm weak, won't somebody get me off of this reef"
