Recall
The ghostly elegance of ages past
As a madman
Drawn to decades set adrift
In ceaseless longing
Enslaved by mourning afterthought

Recollect
Upon the maiden garbed in lily white
How she wandered into your loving grace
Every now and then
Bestowing her kind words
Blessings and well wishes

Remain
Bound to the husk of her voice
The soft overture
That once ravaged your being
Demanding for you ever so slightly
Sly and collected
Casual and cool

Reel
In the company of retrospect
Chiding every movement made
Every quirk and foul up
Each thoughtless misstep

Recall
Until your anguish is spent
Until the last pint of remembrance has fled
And the fury of reminiscence
Burdens you no more
