Nothing more did I want

Memories seem to take a great deal
of courage to face...
let me catch my breath
and I'll explain.
How can I show you
what I see?
Or feel what I feel?

I remember the beach
we visited... those nights
spent doing nothing.
This was unusual
for me;  I usually felt so busy
but this was different.

I remember those beaches
where happiness was finding
a new way to hold her
and be with her
or be held by her...
Happiness was so easy then.
