Remember Me

Remember me when it’s dark out, when the fog rolls up onto your clear window and laces it with it’s cold breath.

Remember me when you’re rolling around in your bed and you just can’t seem to find comfort in the warm sheets.

When you find the strength to lift your heavy anchor of a body out of your resting place, I hope you’ll remember the way we used to play.

And when you’re blindly leading yourself to the kitchen, to make some strong, milky coffee,think about how I filled your life with more energy that any cup of coffee ever could.

But just as I plead for you to remember our early mornings,

our body heat and how our cups were filled with more than just coffee,

I plead myself not to forget.

But how could I ever forget you ?

Or how I found complete comfort inside your arms, it felt as if I could escape everything when you held me .

How could I ever forget how you’d roll over, eyes still shut, with this big smile on your face and pull me closer.

It would be a shame if I forgot how we tugged at the warm blankets or how you allowed me to cover your body with mine.

It would be a shame.

Remember me in your darkest times, when the tunnel is so draped with shadows that you can not even imagine a form of light.

Remember me in your happiest hours, the hours where you can’t imagine life without laughter and music.

But most of all, please remember me in the moments when you’re just passing through life.

When you’re grabbing a cold glass of water or when you find yourself complaining  about a movie you don’t like .

Please remember me when you’re driving in the dark and catch yourself staring at the moon..

I cannot ask you to love me for forever,

I cannot ask you to wait for me,

I know it’s not easy,

But all I ask of you , is please

Remember me .
