~ The Accents Of My Youth ~
My love and I
Did, such soft kisses make
That I questioned why
My soul, could not remake
The accents of my youth
She did at times
Wonder, why I could not contain
This, most subtle lullaby
And simply replicate,
The promise in kissing's proof
But brighter, than virginal eyes
Starlit love, did fast create
So many reasons why
Her sweet lips, did make me so afraid
Of the accents in my youth
My love, then downsized,
Through my own shortcomings, pain,
And I, too slow to realize
Those soft kisses, were her hearts refrain
Too late, to kisses undo
And now, so long ago, has arrived
With the simple fact that I,
Am able to empathize,
A smile upon my face,
Have come to realize,
The magic held,
In the accents of my youth...

Great piece on reflection and recollection, Tony. It makes me think about my relationship with a certain someone. She always had this hold on me and knew how to pull my strings. But her hugs and a simple smile always pulled me in and I'd always be smiling.
'Have come to realize,

I relate to that because there was always that magic from long ago. Between me and her, even in bad times. We just forget and hold onto to what brought us together in the first place. It's like the north star I suppose. Never losing sight of something significant.
Great work, brother poet!
