Lets Try Again?

I will sing you sweet melody
when I do you will not be set free
for in love is a certain bondage
one when we long for after absense
as we suffer sweet amnesia

Cherish everyday
dream of me and my ways
forget me the way I was
long for love
as love is remembered
not as love does
For in your memory
I am perfect like
I never was

In the end to heed your plea
would be reminding you with me
were miserable, angry, wanting
The idea of me
is much more fulfilling
than reality

Ah… The bee departs, mortally wounded, but he leaves his stinger as a reminder.

Our memory holds with esteem the ones we love and over look the faults of, because our hearts long for them so... A nice write sandra!!
