all my memories
are decaying as we speak
my eyes only register your long lashes
your lips, your teeth
i'm consuming you with my whole being
forgetting I had any other reason to live
synapses spark
vivid images die within me
say you'll be here when I wake up
because I can't deal with the idea of
not being able to remember your face
touch, small little moles on your back
i never want to forget any of that
i don't mind if everything else leaves
i just need some kind of hope
that something we have will last eternally
i'll never be able to remember this moment
more clearly then I see it now
and something in my heart shatters
at the thought beauty can't transcend
the physical limits of the matter in my mind
