Google and Wikipedia

How can I 
confront you with a dark
forgotten past 
when we 
look forward
to better things in the future?


We grew so close
fell into the teenage trap 
and its
long stemmed rose
knew  each other’s history so well
like Google and Wikipedia
smiles flooded summer
curled in the rains
with love buckled to our hearts
eyes  blur through memory’s mist 
fine things 
now going home
the sea swallowing sun
you rated my rules none
and it gets to me 
it was only your love
I was after.
