Ashen Sweet Taste
I was eating a Terry’s Chocolate Orange that I got for Christmas, then I started to think of my Grandma, she used to be the one that got the chocolate oranges, and the taste in my mouth just turned ashen.
.
The sweet taste
Turns to ash
As I think
Of twenty years
Of memories past
And wish that
I could have
Them all back
And stop time
As it was
Those years ago
With ev’ryone back
And the happiness
And the innocence
That childhood holds
Just fanciful thought
I have aged
The innocence gone
As have they
Here I am
The sweet taste
Turned to ash
