I have him marked permanently. I know for a fact that he will be in my life forever. But, how is it even possible to forget his existance when he has dropped doses of his presence everywhere I go.. Memories liquified and absorbed by the very grounds I walk upon now and in taunting future, horrifying in nature because I am too afraid to let go. Phantom like, his smile, his hand, his scent. There's no denying this crocheted connection; I am ten thousand miles away and I am stunned because I can smell him. So heavily sweet, but too quick to make its departure. He gives me the right to repeat hackneyed phrases, and to embrace them proudly; I no longer only empathize, I live. And I live.. I live to know that somewhere where I might not be able to see him, he's there.
