Seduction Pantoum for SLAM Finale Round 3
Seduced by Memory

You’ve been gone now for quite a while.
It seems like I should be getting used to it
but there are still those days when I remember
and missing you is as fresh as yesterday.

It seems like I should be getting used to it
but a thousand memories keep intruding
and missing you is as fresh as yesterday.
I have a new life now, filled with work and love and laughter

but a thousand memories keep intruding ~
memories of your songs, your touch, and all the things we did together.
I have a new life now, filled with work and love and laughter
but hidden from view is a wide and lonely place where often I am drawn to go.

Memories of your songs, your touch, and all the things we did together
comfort me and make me smile.
But hidden from view is a wide and lonely place where often I am drawn to go
and drink again from the deep well of tears that never goes dry.

Comfort me, and make me smile.
You’ve been gone now for quite a while
and yet, I drink again from the deep well of tears that never goes dry.
There are still those days when I remember ~
