The air came back to my lungs and I was human again. Take me back, I need you. Take me back, I love you. I said yes. Did you forget you needed me? Did you not think it would take the light out of the sky when you left? But you were back, and that's all I needed. I didn't care if you forgot, because something brought you back. And whatever that was saved me from the grey skies and colorless nights. Did you remember love again? You brought the blue to the sky and the purpose back to my lungs. My heart could beat again, and again, I could be something. Not much, but I could be something. You remembered you needed me and I was there because I knew you couldn't forget. I met up with you in my dreams and you didn't forget me. You remembered you needed me and I didn't care that you forgot. I needed the lights to come back on, and I let you in. No more secrets, no more tears. We were okay. I'm glad you didn't forget you needed me. Did you really forget you needed me? Something got into your water, I told myself. Something plagued your mind. But that was okay because your mind cleared again and my eyes weren't blurry anymore. The color came back, did you remember you needed me?
