|
Last evening, I turned by the pages of time. |
|
And tore out the chapters when you were mine. |
|
I attempted to cut out the memories of you. |
|
And paste in some new ones, far better an' true. |
|
True. |
|
I searched through the chapters, referring to hearts, |
|
for the one with the caption: "Till death do us part." |
|
I ripped at each letter an' I tore at each word. |
|
I screamed at your memory an' nobody heard. |
|
Nobody heard. |
|
But your memory's determined, and chances are few, |
|
Of my ever finding a replacement for you. |
|
It depserately clings to the floor of my mind, |
|
And fights for its place in the pages of time. |
