Final Cover Song

Contributed by Charles Dean Walker

In high school, I dreamed of having a band.
There would be covers I’d want to do.
One I wouldn’t want to release as finished.
Especially if I sang with a woman I love.
Two versions, one song, one goodbye.
The final goodnight to cap off our lives.
The song is “My Song” by Johnny Ace.

A music video that is simple and beautiful.
A night sky, constellations of our faces.
Then the voices of us, with a song pledging eternality together.
