Sultans of Swing

~Sultans of Swing

By the Dire Straits

You loved that song

Excited for me to hear it

For the first time

You called me your music encyclopedia

We always connected through music

Even though we were disconnected

In every other way

I sat on that barren floor

Of old cracked wood

While my brother played in the courtyard

Outside the window of your

New lover's

Rundown

One bedroom apartment

I became lost

In the grooves

Of that album

Rocking back & forth

Wrapping the music around me

Like a security blanket

I heard it on the radio

Today

Remembering 30 years ago

Like it was

Yesterday~
