Remember Ed
The fragrance of an orchid rafting through the air
The eruption of a sweet pitcher plant striking but still care
The melodic strains of an orchestra sailing through the night
And the resonant notes of the guitar seeking drums to smite
Reminds me of you and of a beauty rare
The pain on my words spying on past scenes
The impetuous shiver contaminating my pen's ink
The barricade impulses of my brain in this conquest
And the battles imitating the path of the bullet's request
Reminds me of you as your love sinks
One day we'll look back on this day
Smiling, playing, and laughing without dismay
But right now, if tears were diamonds, I'll be worth a trillion
And if sorrow fear, Il'd be the back page of a lion
Because I remembered you and I today
This time, an 'ED' tags along with my REMEMBER
Not portraying PAST
But that I will REMEMBER you Even till Death
