The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Still Beautiful

So many years have passed us now
I still remember you
The way you used to smile at me
and how you kissed me too...

When last we met, I was so young
incredibly naive
I never thought you'd really go
that you would ever leave...

I had to learn to find a way
to heal and then move on
To close the chapter in the book
and start another one...

Imagine my surprise today
a Facebook photograph
An avalanche of memories
and some that made me laugh...

You look so very happy now
the heartstrings start to pull
The smile that I remember well
and still so beautiful...
