It’s been years. I thought time would wash over the muddled traces But it has only left a resentment to the words. The sense of longing never quite leaves my chest. So I pickup the painful memories scattered here and there. even though the features I knew so well are fading, I can’t help but search for your figure. Your eyes. At the bus stop, on the street, in the corners of bookstores, even though I know I won’t see you. It’s fine though, because when the moon shines through my bedroom window, you haunt every part of me. And the words I resented are so clear. If only I had spoken these three words.. would things have been the same?
