Keepsakes Poem by Kewayne Wadley

When I am with you
The night always feels like
Summer,
No matter what time of year.
Gorgeous and beautiful
Reflecting on the water of your
Eyes.
The way I feel is like a rollercoaster
Circling around up and down
In spiral bliss & I
Along for the ride with no control
Of where I go,
With no desire to stop or get off.
The lights blur and connect
Wrapping around my wrist
For what feels infinity.
The bottom of my stomach stuck
In my throat grabbing on
To an exciting fear of heights.
The fair only comes once a year,
When I am with you it feels
Like it's here to stay.
Even if the ride stops I can
Always get another ticket
After my soul experiences a hungry
Bite of a corn dog shared with
yours.
When I am with you
The night always feels like
Summer no matter where we are.
It's always familiar to me
No matter where we go.
I still have the wristband
As a keepsake
