Scotland in November
looking back
it seems quite obvious
we were doomed
before we started
so very far apart
culturally and
geographically
but we had so much
together
laughter
and passion
and all that love
so many great times
and those special moments
I’ll always remember
but the passion faded
and the laughter died
and the love
just wasn’t enough
to cross the distances
or hide the differences
deep down
it still lingers
and sometimes
briefly flickers
but nothing can hide
the harsh truth
you were July
on the Côte d’Azur
and I was
Scotland in November
