Age Has Not Aged

we gathered lilacs
             you&I
in that faroff land
                              distant
now uninhabited
unvisited
             'cept by memories

those days     so real
more real then
          than   this today
seen through a veil
yet
   still indelible
        imprinted forever
hardwired for easy recall

age has not aged
who we were then
passion
     is not stilled in the breast
desire now
         does not rest
                        but stirs

we drink at that fountain
of yesterdays
                  when
                     we were young
&
this love of ours
          had just begun
we wander&kiss
   the same&
                   remenisce
of that faroff time
I
   remain yours
&
   you are still mine
