I remember.
I remember when you said "It's now or never".
You tried to hide it, be strong,
but I could see it in your eyes clearly how much you were hurt.
"I'm not going to ask you twice." you said.
I knew.
But you also knew that I'd never wanted the same thing.
So with heavy hearts, we parted.
You held your tears.
I held mine.
We said goodbye.
It’s strange to see you holding someone else in your arms.
It’s strange,
and I know you feel it too.
By the look in your eyes. I know.
You may smile, but your eyes say otherwise.
Because we both know,
it should be me.
It’s supposed to be me.
I remember the song we used to sing.
The song that lulled us to sleep.
The song that always seemed to play when you warmly hugged me,
Protectively, Posessively.
But you’re not here with me today.
So, I hug myself,
and remember.
I remember when you first told me you love me.
I was surprised,
but you blurted it out as if it was nothing.
As if it was a known fact.
Such confidence from you.
But as always.
You knew before I did.
You knew that I loved you,
even before I said it to you.
Maybe that’s why you flashed your mischievous grin afterward,
and went by ignoring my stunned expression.
You knew you had made me love you.
Now,
Now I’m asking you to look at me again.
Look at me and remember how you used to love me.
Look at me and our memories, and remember how we used to love,
And then tell me,
Look at me and tell me if you don’t love me anymore.
Look at me and tell me if you don’t remember.
Because just like you did, I know before you do.
I know that you,
just like I do,
Still remember.
