these passing moments with you
could declare a lifetime
of temporary happiness
if only you knew
how important you are to me

innocent games we play
rewriting the rules
changing the motives
never knowing exactly
where the fun ends

i'd like to believe
you would never cheat

there is a fine line between
knowing how to play
and actually playing
which i would assume
is kept exclusive
between us

when desire takes precedence
over consideration towards one another
outweighing the good and the bad of you
becomes unbalanced
as i am always biased
in regards to matters of the heart

even if you never love me
the way i love you
memories we made
will stay creased
on the sheets where i lay
waiting for you to come back

Was it so effortless for you to cast me aside,
As though I had never dwelled within your heart, nor walked by your side?
Have you forgotten the beauty of the moments we shared,
When our souls intertwined, and nothing else compared?

Let us abandon the wounds we inflicted in our distance and embrace the quiet joy that once united us. Forget the anguish, and remember the love that first sparked and sustained us.

So many more things I would have loved
to share with you.
So many more stories I would have loved
to exchange with you.
So many more words I would have loved
to learn and unlearn with you.
So many more emotions I would have loved to know if you feel the same way, too.
So many more things I would have loved
to share with you.
Your music.
Your warmth.
Your personal space.
Your laughter and their sounds, reverberating between our bodies.
Our bodies.
The night.
My tongue.
The silver moon sparkling.
Your necklace, I want to share it, too.
Your rib and my rib, kissing too.
