I’ll never forget our first date
I won’t even forget the first moment I saw you
Looking up, drinking your light…
I’ll never forget the first few moments in the bookstore.
I lost my heart to you so quickly and you did not even know it.
I will never forget the snake that adorns your finger
Nor your body at night.
I’ll never forget what you make me feel
Nor your smile when you love and when I anger you.
I’ll never forget how hard it was to take you back home
When all I wanted was just to keep you by my side.
Not let you go.
Damn all those duties that a master prompt wrought into me.
I cut one line, like vine, and still took way too long to you.
I’ll never forget how my thoughts always trail off to you, always.
No matter the time of the day or the joy or pain.
And every time my mind discovers a new mystery
It’s you it wants to share it with - never will that change.
I’ll never forget you, in my shirts,
Every time I saw you I died a bit and went to heaven, never to come back.
I’ll never forget the music shared, the dreams confessed,
The soundscapes felt when fingers touch across our bodies,
The dreams shared, the future desired, longingly,
The joy when live was born between us.
No one comes close to you, nothing replaces you.
I still don’t know if you truly fathom what I feel for you.
When clouds of atoms swirl
In glittering rays of sunlight faint
I imagine
Across the rings of Saturn
To be your counterpart and in
Eternal bond of tight attraction
Never to leave you, always to stay close
Dancing gently,
Bound by a charge
That is as inexplicably strong
As power that circles,
In strings of light across the universe.
No matter what you think of me in future times
Or how far away you feel, I wish you knew,
That like a drowning man on seas cold and forlorn
I’ll struggle to come back to you and won’t forget
Each moment that we had as guiding light.
