Fireflies danced <br />in the August moonlight <br />while we sang songs of summer <br />laughing like children <br />and sipping martinis (extra dry) ... <br />you with your Sapphire <br />me and my Stoli <br /> <br />gourmet fare, <br />champagne and kisses <br />shared on the grass <br />beneath the silver stars <br /> <br />we danced with Etta James <br />cheered with the Red Sox <br />and made love in your bed <br /> <br />we held heaven <br />in our hands for weeks <br /> <br />but you left me <br />with nary a word <br />returned to your past, <br />to the lover <br />who tore your heart in two <br />left me with nothing, not even goodbye <br /> <br />apart from the <br />fear in my heart, and <br />tears on my face <br />nothing is all that remains <br /> <br />© 2006 Raymond J Wright<br /><br />Raymond J Wright<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/all-that-remains-2/
