Letting You Go

You haunt my skin

I feel each soft caress

The laughter stings my senses

You float in each teardrop

As I let them descend

Slapping my heart

Happiness stroked my mind

Enfolding my pieced together

heart,

They took to the ballroom

Swaying with their missing

partners,

Creating new sturdy threads

irregular beats do gentle

strums,

Smiles crown our silky lips

Eyes blossom with mischief

Sleepless nights dawn with

new found warmth,

I let what may have been go

I pray you remember me

My selfishness shines

Remember me

Remember me

Remember me

I am the thirst

Heating a forgotten desert

The bitter cold falling upon

moonlit sands,

The scorpions penetrating

flesh,

The dry winds stealing breath

A single lily wilts

Reminding you

Forever reminding you

*My selfish heart can't help but want you always remembering me.

What an amazing man you were. I promise never to forget you.
