A Memory (a poem)
Picture I took in Thailand
I keep you with me
as I walk the streets
dodging the rain
and rushing through my every day.
The rain
is like the time
I went away.
Last look of your face
always in my memory
forever frozen.
Stormy days
don’t bother me
for all I know
is lost in time.
So much to say
cannot be done.
My false memory
an untouchable shadow.
Who you are
unknown to me.
I hide under the awning
await the rain to end
and leave you once again.
