Remember You

Beginning to end with you.

I remember the day

I told you ‘hi’.

And the glitter and sparkle

That flashed in your eyes.

It lit up like a thousand stars

In the dark of night

And lifted me up higher in the sky.

I knew it was foreign to you

But I liked it all the same

You tried so hard to hide yourself

Behind a wall and never come out

But I kept creeping in one way or another

Into your heart.

That childish barrier finally fell

And you let me into the gates of hell

Your secret was so strong

That it tore me apart

But I stuck around

Because I knew that nothing

Not even your health

Would have changed who you are.

You saw it and so did I

That no matter what

I’d stay by your side.

And so it changed

And evolved with time

That hidden happiness

Finally raised

And you felt as though

A weight was taken off

I didn’t judge

I stuck around

Like I said I would

I didn’t mind

It didn’t bother me

Your condition

Only sadden me

But my love for you

Never changed

Even after what you had said

The very next day

Your time was coming

Just as you feared

You hung on to me

That night so scared

Of what may happen

Of what may come

My love might leave me

Alone in the dark

But I didn’t care

I hugged you tighter

Nothing would have taken us apart

I stared into those eyes

That glittered since the first day

And I messed up that hair

That wavy chocolate brown hair

That stopped by your ears

And always covered your eyes

And then you had smiled
