scared to fall,
but more scared
of never flying,
so i sit at the edge
and wait.

i cannot - will not - pour my sunshine
into someone who does not regard me
as their sky.

i imagine it's easy
for you to forget me
and i don't blame you
but i still remember
every blinding smile
lighting up your face
the twinkle in your eye
when you were up to something
every detail about you
your face, your hands, your arms
i still remember you
but it's okay if you forget me
