Some Days In September

Some days in September
You call to catch the sunset

Down by the water.
You say that sitting by the river

Helps you forget
Where you came from,

Where you are going.
I remember the moon

Would sliver to the right
As does your smile

Under certain candlelight


Some days in September
We spend walking on the beach

As the tide goes out
So that when I kiss you

I cannot taste your tears.
We talk about those things

That change
Those that never die.

Oceans, rivers
Beneath sunsets

That look in your eyes.
