"On top of that you're gorgeous"
Do you remember when you said that to me?
Do you remember why?
Do you remember any of it at all?
It one of the many phrases i keep tucking under my tongue for emergencies. I recite your words about me in my loneliest moments, in hopes it will make the dark days turn brighter than the sun. I quote you directly if i could, but i know how silly i would seem. How childish i would be, when the words spill out my mouth for your ears to take them in and your mind to disregard them. To you i was gorgeous. But that was before. This is now. Words linger when you're a writer, i guess that's why you can't remember, and i will never forget.
