Surfeit

Now and then
When I think of you
I think of the now
And I think of the then

Your lush pink lips that were
Look a shade darker these days
Your dulcet voice that was
Sounds a few pitches sharper today

I wonder about the how
And I wonder about the when
When I think of the now
And when I think of the then

I cannot laugh
At your jokes anymore
Because I already have
Many times before

You look the same
You are the same her
I am sure you are
But more than you ever were

That which was victory
Is defeat today
That which was love
Is surfeit today.
