Speaking of late

Are you hungry,

How about a date?



Whoa, you are a smooth talker,

I don’t know how far I would get

Without a walker.



You stay right there,

I will sneak out and find you a chair.



Why sir, do you think this proper?

We just met, and look at the hour.



Oh, yeah, I guess you are right,

We should wait until tomorrow night.

I will just cross over to my room and go to bed.



Don’t you dare,

Get back over here,

Have you lost your head?



I was just teasing you, I wouldn’t have gone.



Least I see your sense of humor hasn’t changed

Since you left home.



Oh, Seina, I don’t ever want to be apart.

I know somehow, you own my heart.

Let me get you that chair

We can go to that all night diner over there.



Sean, Vance will be livid that we snuck out.



It is okay, I will tell him we were hungry

And he knows how I love trout.



You are incorrigible, but let’s go.

Will you hand me my slippers there,

Who is to know?

Look under your chair.



Oh, God it is so good to have him here,

Even if his memory isn’t clear.

Just having him close to me,

Is enough, Lord. Thank thee.



Okay, see if you can snag a chair,

And I will try to do something with this hair.



My dear you can’t improve on perfection.



Are you hitting on me? Is that what I am detecting?



With every fiber of my being,

I want to remember,

Every thing about you Seina,

Which is now just a glowing ember.



I am trying to turn the memory,

Into a raging flame,

But as I come near, it flees,

As though it will not be claimed.



It will come my love,

Sure as there is a God above.

Don’t put so much pressure on yourself that you worry,

It only runs faster if you hurry.



Now sneak out and get that chair.

They brought me up in one,

So it should be out there.



Hurry back my love and my heart,

The seconds seems like hours

When we are apart.



Well, so far so good,

He looks a little gaunt,

But that is understood.

My heart must start to slow,

Or I will pass out before we go.

Now where could they have put that chair.

Crap! It is by the nurses’ station there.

Hmmm, this lab coat should do the trick,

I will pose as an orderly and the chair I will get.



Evening ladies, I was sent for the chair.



Go ahead and take it, it is right there.

Don’t bother us with asking, just be on your way,

Wait, orderly, you may as well take this tray.



Yes ma’am, right away.

Seina are you ready to go?

Your chariot awaits my lady…Hello?!?
