Inevitably fading
The memories of you
of us
of then
There is no now
But there are memories
Beautiful times
Times when you made me smile
Time when I laughed until I could barely breath
Times when I couldn't see past you
There was only you
I could only see
you
Times when your smell was comforting
appeasing
familiar
Times when I couldn't share a space with you
without butterflies
without feeling a sense of home
You were my home
You were
mine
Now all we have to share
are memories
Our love
is no longer shared in our union
Or carried in our hearts
The spirit of what was
remains within the memories
that like all things
will eventually
inevitably
fade
