Today's your birthday,
Inexplicably, I still remember,
I can't remember any other girl's
But yours is in my head
Along with inane minutia,
Like the deepest point in the ocean,
Or the world's deadliest snake,
Not that I wish I'd drown or
be bitten than remember,
But this day sits like
An immovable obelisk in my mind,
A memorial to
The best and worst thing
To ever happen to me
