"Love Endures"

We were impossibly young and so beautiful,

When we met and fell in Love.

You were the cool guy from the big city,

I was the shy small-town girl.

I bring you photographs of those days long ago, 

You look and smile and ask me who those people are.

I take your hand, it is warm and strong in mine,

You don't remember me, but you know we belong together.

I tell you the stories of these two young people,

You listen intently, and study their faces.

And look into my face,

With wonder in your eyes.

I have come to understand that it doesn't matter,

That you no longer remember who we were then.

It only matters that we can sit and hold hands,

While I tell you stories of our past.

Like an olde photograph, memory can fade away,

 BUT  LOVE  ENDURES.

In the touch of hands, in a smile,

  In the wonder I see in your eyes.
