I lie awake remembering, wishing I could sleep to forget.

the scent of her sweat
cigarette ash on my skin
she says, "don't forget."
as she whispers to my ear
the story of how we met

Life
                                                            ­    has
            a
                       funny
     way
                                           of
                                  
                                ruining

      
                                                      Lives.

If I give you my trust...
You promise you wont let it rust...
