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.
