i'm starting to have
a hard time remembering things.
like passwords
and meetings
and schoolwork.
and i'm not exactly sure why
but i have a feeling
that it may be
because of you.
again, my dear
you're on my mind
more often than
my understanding
of the knowledge
that i can actually remember
to count to a hundred.
instead of thinking
about how many times
i think of you
and committing them
to a number,
i'd rather count
to a hundred of something else.
maybe the seconds i spend with you.
perhaps the breaths you take,
when we sit side by side.
maybe even the smiles
you give me in a week.
the hugs you give me
in a month.
at least
in forgetting
i'm remembering you.
