What do I remember?
I remember the way you look,Β 
When you are in deep sleep.
The way your lower lip falls down,
And your breath is even.
I remember when you are so focused on your game,
You won't even notice I'm watching you,
Closely.
I remember the sun beam falling onto the cat.
And how you adore her playing with
That grocery bag on the floor.

What do I remember?
I remember giving up on love,
For good,
After so many heartaches.
Then… out of the blue, I remember my heart
Beating again.
Maybe, this time. Maybe?
I remember seeing you for the first time,
At Dulles, on a warm May day.
Hugging me for life, bringing me to life.

What do I remember?
I remember you.
Me.
Smiling at each other.
And the thousands of miles is now just a number.
