I don’t remember.
It seems like yesterday
or a year ago
since you left the overbearing beat of my heart
I thought I would still feel the lingering hover of your lips
but i can’t seem to recall
how that felt
the way your smile
would light up a room
the way your laugh warmed my stomach
did it?
it’s funny. really.
The way you decided to quit.
Just yesterday,
or maybe last week,
I was asked if I was in love with another
but the truth was,
I couldn’t seem to remember.

It really is strange, and heartbreaking, how such intense longings interfere with our memory and perceptions of time. You capture that well here.
