I never think about you
Your name is distant, your face  blurred
as if purposefully hidden

I never think about the things
things we did, things we created to make us more
than just familiar acquaintances sharing nothing but a Hello  

I never think about the places
the ones we used for adventure
ones we made our own without permission but acceptance

I never think about the times
The firsts, the lasts, the bests, the only

You are not forgotten
not even close to a faint idea
Your presence lingers
silently, with the ambiance of our home

You see I never think about the things
because I treasure them as if they were so beautifully fragile
even the thought would break it, break me

I never think about the places
to leave my mind standing in them feels empty, cold,  lonely

I never think about about the times
because I want to face the up and coming ones without tears and reminiscing  

I never think about you
because you are constantly in my thoughts
you are always a part of my mind, my heart

So don't for a minute think that I dont think about you
I don't,
your always there
