I Remember

I hear your name
& it never ceases to remind me
of the times we've had
together
as insignificant as they may be

Everywhere I go I see your face
flawless and perfect
just like you appeared to be
for the longest time
pure perfection

I remember the grass
cool, crisp, yet damp
as we lay there
your head in my lap
hand in hand

Gazing up to the glittering stars
I've never felt more wanted
or more in place before
everything felt so right
being with you

Curve
the sweet, sharp smelling cologne
you were wearing
whenever we were together
that always rubbed off on me

Like thousands of shooting stars
the fireworks snapped
crackled and popped
in the night sky
above our heads

the color of chestnuts
your eyes burned into mine
leaving behind
unforgettable reminders
and a lasting impression

ten years from now
I might still hear your name
and it still might not cease to remind me
of the times we've had
together

your warm laugh will still
echo in my ears
& your face will flash before me
your sweet smile
caressing my daydreams

the feel of your hand on my cheek
as the tears rolled down
is an eternal touch
the taste of your kiss
still lingers lastingly on my lips
as I continue to think of you
