Memories of Love

This is another poem of love and blues.

My mind is full of bittersweet memories,

Memories of the first time I saw you,

Memories of the sultry look in your eyes,

And memories of the feeling you gave me

The memories of you will never go away

 

Darling, I can’t block out the memories,

Memories of your soothing voice,

Memories of your smile that melted my heart,

And memories of the times I kissed your face

You give me endless memories of love

 

Though I’m old, I still have the memories,

Memories of your seraphic beauty,

Memories of having you in my arms,

And memories of the night you said goodbye

Age can’t get you out of my thoughts

 

Pleasant but hurtful memories haunt me

I’ll remember you for the rest of my life

Darling, I was such a fool to lose you

I wish I had amnesia to take away the pain,

For I know that there isn’t another you

Ladies and gentlemen, the blues, please.
