Laugh until we think we'll die, barefoot on a summer's night, nothin new is sweeter than with you.

I can't easily decipher
words
lyrics
attitudes
emotions.
I sit in my fog
and wonder.
And in your magic,
there lie the reflection
the key
that I had been searching
for.
In your mystery,
lay the quiet twinkle
and glimmer
of a silent memory,
that huddled in the alcoves
of my melancholy mind.
And in your stories,
I discovered the
yellow brick road,
what I though was made
of asphalt,
but not.
They curled you
into the ground,
with a final lament.

The author's comments:
To my inspiration, my role model, the father I never had, the instigator, the story-teller, the actor, the director-
Thank you for everything. RIP, tell your cats and Bailey hi for me, will you?
