do you remember
how gorgeous the sky looked
that april morning,
and how radiance
seemed to emerge
from the clouds?

do you remember
the letter i gave you
in messy blue ink
with my wandering thoughts
tucked safely inside
the plain paper envelope?

do you remember
our late night conversations
our stifled laughter
beneath linen bed sheets
miles apart yet
somehow united?

but do you remember
my soaking wet pillow
my impeccable loneliness
on the verge of insanity?
i know for a fact that you don't remember,
because that memory is mine
