The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Still

It has been six years 

Six long revolutions around the sun
And she still haunts me. 

The memory is gray, like an October New York City day. 

Forgotten is the reason why it stopped 

Hazy is the memory of how it began

Lost forever is the magic of it all
And she still haunts me.
