Together Forever Poem by Terry Collett

Together forever that’s what she
thought and maybe she said it too
you can’t recall it being such a while
ago but hey you loved her right even

if you never actually said so in so many
words at least not to her face not so she
could drink it in and set it amongst the
other dreams she had as a 14 year old girl

and what she thought of 14 year old you
you’ll never know now and she never said
at least not to your face not so you could
tuck it in with the dreams you had of being

a racing driver or movie star or some such
other but being together forever never
took off and maybe without answer just her
dying years later with cruel creeping cancer.
