Long I lay in a bed of dreams
Mourning the days of my youth
Gentle notes playing in my ear
And plucking apart my heart
I thought of all those I had known
Our paths twined for an instant
Before diverging on courses unknown
I drank deep of memory
And saw places long gone
Things that had passed
Wondering what might have been
In other lives
