When you showed me an old photo
Of a beautiful young couple
For a few uncanny seconds
They were strangers to me
Though I knew I knew them
We were so skinny back then
My daughter and me with
One of her old boyfriends
They'd been living together
For a while and she had
Wanted me to meet him
He flew planes and soon
Flew out of her life
Ephemeral as memory
