Reminiscent Venues

He dragged his eyes across the pavement
To think of what he has lost.
For to be alone in his head makes no brutal dent
When he dwells on memories many have tossed.

He thinks for all emotion and for her sparkling voice
He may brood upon the thoughts of her and may refund them without choice.

She wanders alone, accompanied with thought
Passing various reminiscent venues
She thinks the phrase her old lover once said "You'll never realize what you've got"
While she acts as the flailing and determined ingenue

She thinks for all emotion and his raspy warm coo
She cherishes the time she thinks of him but doesn't know what to do

They meet on a street, their eyes catch after they pass
They wished that they could but they were past console
The moment felt together, a gathering of the broken shards of glass
Together they met and together they stayed

Oh, unstoppable together
They were, as they were again and forever
