I remember
Your body stretched out before me
Charting my course along
Your legs, my lips measuring
Every inch, my heart singing
With every kiss, your skin
And these blankets
Mingle, I see you in the
Places no one knows
The smile no one shows
Outside the bedroom
Wrapped up in
Fantasy, a dance I've dreamed of
Ever since we met
The candles burn to
Wicks, the wax makes
Tiny rivers on your chest
We could live here in this bed
Forever
Even as the light crosses
Sheets, I'm still staring
In awe of your beauty
No one else knew me
Quite like this
As your eyes open
And I'm hopelessly caught
Admiring
I remember
A moment just like this
When the whole world
Swore, we'll never make it
Love lived on in our hands
Now I hold you in my head
A photograph I'll never forget
An epitaph carved
Into monumental hearts
No one could love like this
Between pages and blankets
Between sunrise and sunset
There's nothing to match
This, and I'll never forget
Your body stretched out before me
Charting my course into
Your memories
I've written you into
My empty pages
Now nothing will ever be the same
All else may fade
Yet even as we wake
In dreams, I'll still stay
Along edges and mirror frames.
