In the kitchen
where we used to
dance-

you played the songs that
changed my heart.

It wasn't reckless happenstance
It was our time
you played your part.

I played mine too,
but now you're
gone-
And I'm left here to
Rattle on.

My heart still holds onto those tunes,
The afternoons,
the coffee spoons.

In the Kitchen where
We used to
Dance-

You played the songs that
Got me through.

Though it may not
seem so at first
glance-

I pray I've done the same
for you.
