If I could,
I'd like to lay out my memories for you, on a vast table,
And sort through them, like pictures.
I would choose the ones I loved,
And discard the ones that brought me pain.
Better yet, I'd like to have us both choose;
Then I could wrap up the best memories in a delicate kerchief,
And bequeath them to you, personally;
That way, I could be assured that our choices
Would cause you to inherit the best memories
Of our times together.
