I'm just a shadow beneath your feet. Do you see me? Feel me? Hear me breathe? I'm behind you every step of the way, everyday, in every single way. I want to be close to you. Closer than i already am. Press your body against mine. You're not close enough. Let me breathe you in, hold you in, let you in...to my heart. I don't want to part from you or let you go but I have been there and done that twice before. I'll go back to the days when you stayed with me and said you missed me. But those memories are in my head and they float around before I go to bed. I dream of a day when memories are all that we make and take each one with us to the grave. I saved a piece of my heart for you , don't break it, just take it, and make it, mold it, fold it, into something new. Something you can treasure and keep forever, or maybe throw away whenever.
