In My Life

there are places
i remember
all my life
though some
have changed
some forever
not for better
some are gone
and some remain
all these places
have their meanings
with lovers and friends
i still can recall
some are dead
and some are living
in my life
i've loved them all
but of all these
friends and lovers
there is no one
compares with you
and these memories
lose their meaning
when i think of love
as something new
though i know
i'll never lose affection
for people and things
that went before
i know i'll often stop
and think about them
in my life
i love you more
