Remembering

Do you remember all the times
That we stayed out way too long
Laughed too hard
Cried out our eyes
and kissed until our lips were bruised? 

Do you remember the first time we kissed
and we tasted like blue Gatorade and mints. 
The chemistry homework
strewn on the floor and forgotten. 

Do you remember holding hands
and hugging 
our eyes lingering on each other
after we said goodbye 
Our lips and our heart tingling?

Sometimes I play in my mind the words you said to me when you were angry. 
I think about the disappointment in your eyes
When I just didn't have the time. 
I think about the way you said 
"I can't do this anymore" 
and I think about the words i wanted to say but couldn't. 

I love you and I hate you
So long as we stay together
I'll never be complete
Everytime you show me love I stay around
But everytime you leave it feels like I'm lost. 
Is it just cruel selfishness, 
Or do you truly love me?
