As I reflect.
And, with all these words that I now must Gather?
I shall always do my best to Protect.
Recollect.
Never with all my Broken Heart.
Forget.
And, Yes I'm Almost Over U?
...
I'm almost over you?
Yes, but somehow?
I can feel these words aren't true.
Even though my life Must Go On.
It's still so hard to stay strong.
What Dear Lord am I now supposed to do?
...
Like a Sweet but Bittersweet song.
The record keeps spinning but the melodies so very wrong!
And the Holiday's?
They just linger on.
Well, there's still no sweet potato pie?
Just those old Me oh My's.
As a teardrop gathers in my eye.
The beginning of Spring's Misty Dew.
And, I'm almost over you?
...
I can still remember to this very day.
My only son Jay.
Now over 34 years ago.
Now to tear drops must pour.
Yes, when you were only four.
And, you wanted to know why?
Why everybody so far out on that sand bar were so tall?
...
'Now my Son let's see?'
'Yes, just Wrap your arms as strongly as you can?'
'Around Daddy's neck.'
(What the heck?)
As I could feel the power in his body.
Not too shoddy?
And, It's just a matter of swimming out fifty yards.
So, a Quick dive under that first wave.
And, volia!
...
Yes, I'm almost over you.
Yes,my only Love?
But the tears prove to me that it's not true.
When I reflect and think of these times?
The melody tries to continue in rhyme.
But it will always sting.
As it must always somehow hold true.
"Yes, and I'm Almost Over *You?"
