Each memory a song that never seems to end

You taught me to live for the moment. To find joy in the simplest things. To savour each occasion, however insignificant, and hold it in my heart.

(The river in the sunset, the road under the full moon.
Step. Spin. Dip. I've got you on my mind.)

To chill out. To confide and find healing. To try something new.

(Wild. Different.)

Trust breaks into shards of terror. Shards that pierce a heart lain bare by honesty. Confusion. Disappointment. Regret.

Restraint. Interpretation. Alter ego. But I remember, and I know I can't be wrong.

(Every time.)

Words in your voice that haunt the emptiness. Tears. Prayers. There's nothing left but to believe.

(No more words.
Life goes on.)

Those were your lessons. This is a test. I won't take failure for an answer.
