250. Fading Colors Of Yesterday's Tomorrows

I can still clearly recall
       The night you gave to me
              This picture I just found
                     Hidden away in a box.
What pride I took in its colors,
       Putting it out for all to see
              So I could show everyone I knew
                     What beauty your eyes did hold.
I'll always remember
       How it felt to hold you,
              Lying quietly in the dark,
                     Whispering soft words of life.
But just as quickly
       As all of this began,
              You stopped coming to see me
                     And soon forgot about our dreams.
Now, my magic, wondrous picture
       Was all but a memory
              Of yesterday's tomorrows
                     That were never meant to be.
