A night of heavy drink
You beckon me
Makes me think
About the choices I’ve made

The people I’ve chosen
But those people, they fade
Just when it ends, you blow in

Here you are,
Bare on my bed
Once so afar
Now spread

In town, February 29th
5:20 am
Us, intertwined
I gaze at you like a gem

Fast forward twenty years
I see a house with pictures of you and children in frames
A house made alive by their cheers
And to think, it all started with a young flame
