So I Live

So I live 
with memories
unattached to people and places
floating freely
fluidly
like little balls of mercury
escaped from their correct homes.
Songs bring it back--
'Step on the gas
and wipe that tear away...'--
but what cuts through it all now
is you--
one sweet dream
that HAS
come true today.
Yes,
you--
my talisman against the night,
my hope,
my happiness,
my blue light.
