You said your life was filled with farewells
Whenever you met a kindred spirit
they left before your smile settled
I left without saying goodbye
You must have pretended that I went solo sailing
You checked on the anniversary
and thought
the sea must have been a bit too rough that year
When I appeared like the sudden rain
You brought out beers to celebrate
the trophy of safe home coming
So beautiful. . .
