Dear Admired,
long loves are not always lost or forgotten.
can you remember me?
we knew each other once,
before life's lessons taught us much about nothing
I still see you, you as you are
living in the home that tequila built from an empty heart
the mundanes of the world have placed circles around your beautiful blue eyes now black
where have I seen you before?
some distant life that once connected our absent minds
I sat next you unwilling to see you as I do
we were different then, but you recognized what I failed to see similar
I see you now, you as you are
beauty in white and red has never been so desirable
even more than yesterday
life continues despite dramatic love and passion
pulls apart during the daylight busy hours
meet with me tonight
As old lovers rekindle steady flames
I want you now, you as you are
you as you were, and will be
-Admirer
