65. Whenever you think about me, grant me a smile, whatever you feel about me now, just for old times' sake


so you're not there
anymore

well
all I know 
is
I'm here

and 
though you 
might not noticed it
you are
always 
around
me

fooling around
singing Carole King
songs in my ears
or
lying in the couch
behind me
while I 
frantically
hit the keys
of this wornout
keyboard

witnesses
of many stories
in which
you are
the usual suspect
and I
stand defenseless
before the jury

now
I'm walking
down the aisle
they're
closing down 
the court room
doors

we
may be parting
now
but that means
we're moving 
forward

I know
what you'll say

that's 
life

but
there's
a piece
of me
that leaves
with you
