I remember when I stood beneath the broken New York City sky and felt your kiss within its splashing death
I remember sitting in your old car listening to ****** music and feeling your eyes dance over my blushing skin
And the way you adored my innocence as you held it gently in your hands trying so desperately not to crush it but taking enough to make me straddle a boundary between adolescence and adulthood
I remember when you made me laugh and
I remember sneaking out just so i could spend a moment or two and how hard my heart pounded when you touched me
I remember hour long phone conversations about nothing but they made my lips tingle into an honest smile
Or the way you always told me I was so beautiful and I knew you were never lying.
I also remember when you hurt me then told me you were falling in love
Then it all fell apart
We were never true lovers maybe only in our heads
And I'm not sure we were ever really friends
but even after so many years
And knowing what love really does feel like
Even after many times I told you I never would
And though I never shared that emotion with you
I still remember when we had those beautiful moments
Though small, always wonderful intense and true.
