Soul Patch
The Things We Remember, But Wish We Could Have Forgotten
Love had no seams
Limits were not, except those in wildest dreams
No stitches sewn
Except for those in our sides from jokes known
By campfire, admire, hearts heated synchronization
Nothing held back, no question, no hesitation
Like patches on a quilt, so did memories fade
What would have happened had they stayed?
Were all those years wasted?
Is it just caulked up to something past tasted?
Never slip or fall or so shall withdrawal
Forgiveness not a thing foresaw
Roasted heart on a spit
Through heart sob, and teeth grit
Then came the rain, pelting, hailing prevail
Off blew the kindled warmth in frozen, gusty gale
