I Remember

I remember the yellow room
A face i've never seen since
A picture on the far wall
My hands on the bars
And i remember asking about ugliness
And i remember the sky was broken
And i remember rain
On the other side of the road
And i remember the colour was wrong
And i remember a dream about darkness
And i remember the sound of birds
And i remember careless talk
And i remember blood
And i remember an imagined place
Running laughing
And i remember a white cat with no tail
I remember the letter i gave to her husband
And i remember a terrible secret
And i remember jumping from the 14th step
And i remember pink ribbon in grey hair
And i remember 7:30 1969
And i remember standing in the hall
With strangers
And i remember leaving
