Memories
For RI heard fireworks exploding in my neighborhood as I was walking home last night. And I suddenly remembered you. Our closeness. Your visit here. The times we shared.
There were fireworks the night both of us felt there was something going on between us--the undeniable chemistry, the unspoken attraction.
There were fireworks the night you told me you loved me.
In five days, it will have been exactly one year since we fell in love. So many things have taken place since then.
Tonight, I will watch the fireworks. But you are no longer here with me.
Sometimes, I wonder if you ever remember what we once were. Or if the love we shared meant something to you at some point. But I doubt it.
Tonight, I feel the stinging presence of your absence.
My heart bleeds.
"How can I not love you?
What do I tell my heart?
When do I not want you here in my arms?
How does one walk away from all of the memories?
How do I not miss you when you are gone?"
