I still remember your hands I remember how warm they were Your long flat fingers The scars that dotted your tan skin From all the days spent working in the rain You hated them But I loved them. I remember your eyes A burning brown Eyes that glossed over with rainbow oil spills In the sunlight that reflected off your whole being You hated them But I loved them. I remember your hair I remember twisting my fingers through it Thick and dark Silky straight You hated it But I loved it. I remember your lips I remember them pressing against my back Soft and full Dark and smooth You hated them But I loved them. I remember your voice I remember many nights where it cooed me to sleep Deep and comforting The most familiar thing I knew You hated it But I loved it. I remember your body I remember being held and feeling safer than I ever had before Tall and sturdy Like a tree You hated it But I loved it. I remember your words "I don't love you anymore" You hated having to spit them off your tongue And I hated having to force them through my ears. You hated me And I still loved you.

Don't You Forget It
I still remember your hands I remember how warm they were Your long flat fingers The scars that dotted your tan skin From all the days spent working in the rain You hated them But I loved them. I remember your eyes A burning brown Eyes that glossed over with rainbow oil spills In the sunlight that reflected off your whole being You hated them But I loved them. I remember your hair I remember twisting my fingers through it Thick and dark Silky straight You hated it But I loved it. I remember your lips I remember them pressing against my back Soft and full Dark and smooth You hated them But I loved them. I remember your voice I remember many nights where it cooed me to sleep Deep and comforting The most familiar thing I knew You hated it But I loved it. I remember your body I remember being held and feeling safer than I ever had before Tall and sturdy Like a tree You hated it But I loved it. I remember your words "I don't love you anymore" You hated having to spit them off your tongue And I hated having to force them through my ears. You hated me And I still loved you.
I will never not love you
