I recall your smile
and the way you used to laugh.
I recall the way you walked
without ever looking back.

I recall the moonlit nights
and waltzes across the floor.
I recall waking up
to a letter by the door.

I recall that first sweet kiss
and the scent upon the air.
I recall reaching out
to find you were not there.

I recall the gentle words
and the promises unkept.
I recall the way you left
while I innocently slept.

Now you've come into my life
begging me to recall
all the wonderful times we had.
You want to relive them all.

As I look into your eyes
I simply have to laugh.
Let's begin with the day you walked away
without ever looking back.

Duncan -- Very rarely do we learn from our own mistakes, but this time I did...and I must say, he was very shocked.

Sinister -- Ouch, indeed! So glad you liked it.

James -- It was very soothing to write, as well. Thank you so much for reading!

Sunshinemist -- Thank you so much for replying. It's very nice to meet you as well.

Arthur -- What a lovely response! Thank you so much. "To forgive is divine...but not always wise." Boy oh boy, is that the truth.
