I remember every night We stayed awake until the sun came up. I could count every breath I took with you. I remember every purposefully Awkward glance that led to better things. I remember every word as they fell neatly Out of your mouth. I could close my eyes and retrace Your every outline with a sure touch. I remember all of your favorite books And movies. I don't remember your birthday Or the color of your eyes, What your necklace looks like Or what earrings you wear, How much you loved me Or didn't. And I don't know what's more important.

What's Important.
I remember every night We stayed awake until the sun came up. I could count every breath I took with you. I remember every purposefully Awkward glance that led to better things. I remember every word as they fell neatly Out of your mouth. I could close my eyes and retrace Your every outline with a sure touch. I remember all of your favorite books And movies. I don't remember your birthday Or the color of your eyes, What your necklace looks like Or what earrings you wear, How much you loved me Or didn't. And I don't know what's more important.
