Shall we fall in love with everything? Shall I sing love songs about the raucous noises alley cats make? Or maybe reverently inhale the heavy infusion of smoke and dust that hangs in the air like a suffocating raincloud. Should I utter wishes under my breath whenever luminous bodies of light fall down from the night skies? And do I keep on wondering why the stars always seem to make goodbyes- (Always, when you pass by) I do often wonder about what-might-have-been's that will never be As I sit alone in the sea of so many Yet I promised that I will not let myself be a sad remnant of maybe But I am. And you are just another fragment of my memory, lost in a state of perpetual possibility.
