we are collectors

we are collectors,
no different
than those over a book of
stamps
from some country
in a different age.
or coins,
or books,
or things that others
deem worthless
and throw away.
we are collectors.
keepers of the flame.
of lovers past.
friends that have passed
away.
we turn to them in time
of trouble
in time of pain,
or when all is well and
we wish, upon stars
that one
day we could see them,
hold them,
love them
again.
