the One with stars in his eyes

Once in a while,
I sit down and remember
your smile.

Or the way you'd beckon me,
down your troubled road
of friendship, a new way I was Free.

Sometimes, I Remember the way-
you Left.
Silent, with nothing to Say.

But now, all I can Remember
is the stars in your eyes, as you looked
at me. Trapped, and burning like forgotten embers.
