I wish I could write back your memories
fill in the blanks
and make you whole again
I wish I could write back your memories
write back that smile or the expression you made when mad
I wish I could write back your memories
at least the names of your kids
the names of your grand kids
I wish I could write back your memories
fill in the blanks
and make you whole again
I wish I could write back your memories
write back the personality,
get back the woman who always talked about her prime
I wish I could write back your memories
at least how you met your husband of many years
how you both had funky afros
I wish I could write back your memories
fill in the blanks
and make you whole again
