Insidious Crime*

Time is a thief
Stealing memories of you
A bit at a time
Your laughter first
An insidious crime

The tilt of your head
The sound of your voice
Just a bit at a time
The smell of your hair
Insidious crime

I was holding so tightly
But it was all smoke
And time was the wind
An insidious crime
Memories stolen by time

I remember the pain
As fresh and as raw
As the day I lost you
Not lessened by time
An insidious crime
