I Wrote a Poem

By Fernando Gallegos

I wrote a poem that reminded me of you
A relapse in memory
A story of my hands running through your hair
Your eyes locked on mine

I wrote a story about you
The warmth of your skin
The softness of your lips
Your ethereal voice

I wrote a song for you
Of love idolized
Of love everlasting
Of kindness in your eyes

I drew a picture of you
The softness of your skin
The curves of your body
The curves of your body
The curves of your body

The melody so sad
I couldn’t finish
I couldn’t write of you
I couldn’t sing of you
I couldn’t finish
I couldn’t
