Once more you are remembered

Some roses
Given to you in a time
Full of joyous happy days spent together
Years pass by
Once more you are remembered
Wrapped in your embrace
Drunk on your scent
Trapped in your eyes
My hands around your neck
You said you had to leave
I got all confused, I lost my cool
The moment still happened
Your face so close to mine
I stood there dazed and confused.
Why must we be so imperfect shallow beings?
When the morning comes,
Will I be awake to see the sun?
Or will I be in the hazy, dreamy world of slumber?

Paolo Driussi
