I cherish every memory
Both the happy and not-so-happy ones
Easily accessible and free
I smile when I recollect you were mine once.
There is a gallery in my soul
Filled with faces no longer here
They remind me of a time when I was whole
When the future held no fear
I stare at your portrait
And relive all the moments
We met when I was 28
You freed me of my torments
You gave me so many memories to cherish
More than enough to outlive a lifetime
Though the dreams we fought for perish
Your portrait will hang in my gallery for all-time.
