Retrieved, the Tears

   Blocked out, the memories
     of what ruined our young lives

   Grievous errors of judgment made
     long-buried in archives
  
   Suddenly retrieved, along with our tears
     ~ over such trifles washed oceans of years

Gershon, Weary of the ages, our ennui. So funny the passing of time. -Richard
