My Brain Remembers

-
My brain remembers
Every touch,
Every moment,
And every kiss.

 A flash of lightning,
That only lasts for seconds,
But lingers on for miles.
The things you said.

 The things you promised.
And the word forever stamped
Onto my heart.
Made only for me.

 My brain remembers
The way the corner
Of your lips cracked
Into a smile.

 Remembering the soft
Gaze as you looked 
Into my eyes, never failing
Yet, always wondering.

 If you were good enough
To hold a heart like mine.
And you were good enough.
Because I chose you.

 My brain remembers
The way you dug
Your face into my hair. 
Pulling me closer

 So I wouldn't fade.
If only you had realized
How I see you.
A heart full of gold.

 A dream full of promise.
A warmth that nestled
Me into a sleep beside you.
Remembering you.

 The way you were.
So talented that 
It took my breath away.
Hoping I was good enough

 Hoping to live the rest
Of my days, studying 
Your every flaw,
Your every strength.

 However, falling short.
Forcing me to live
Life without you, again.
Something I didn't want.

 My brain remembers
The way your hair 
Fell at the nape of 
Your neck.

 Remembering how 
I raked my fingers 
Between the strands.
Captivating you into a dream.

 Snuggling closer to me.
The heat of your body,
Bringing me safety.
A home.

 The flash of lightning
Reappears by the places
I revisit, the moments
I encounter.

 By the food I eat 
And the movies I see.
Imagining your back
In front of me.

 Constructing your body
Again inside my head.
Keeping the memory alive.
In case I don't have another moment.

 My brain remembers,
Every touch,
Every moment, 
And every kiss. 

 Recreating the stage,
Where I saw you play 
The piano, just before
Christmas.

 Replaying the notes,
And hoping you'd come home.
Lighting beaming across
The black screen in my mind. 

 Redefining every moment.
Wanting to obliterate them
But, knowing I don't want 
To forget how I felt.

 The scars on my skin
Are only a reminder
That you existed.
Touching my heart.

 Feeling the heartbeat 
Of yours, as I lay my 
Head on your chest.
Feeling happiness embed 

 My smile, a smile that
Has dissipated in this 
Time of separation.
Knowing I'd never forget.

So, my brain remembers
Every promise,
Every moment,
And every argument.

 Knowing how I felt then.
Wondering if it will ever comeback.

Those Three Words

-
This moment time is where I hold on to the most. I feel the wind against my rosy cheek and many times people stare at me as if I was a freak. I wonder about the times of the chemical reaction. I breathe in and out as I close my eyes. His image comes to mind... His beautiful smile radiates much sunlight and I can't help but to think of a way to feel his embrace. The sound of his voice relaxes me so I won't faint. All I could think about, if this was fate. I open my eyes and there he is. Holding his breath as I see the beauty that is him. No wonder I feel like a fool. His blue eyes sparkle in the sunlight as I touch the palm of my hand to his cheek. His eyes close as I lean my forehead upon his and I feel protected yet so happy. Then he says those three words I'd been waiting for... "I love you." As I heard those words role off his tongue. I couldn't help but to smile like an idiot. The thought of him is so love driven that I can't see my life without him ...

Our World... Your World... My World

-
The world can be cold, dark and dangerous but it also could be warm, bright and welcoming. It's how we see our world and it's how we want our world to be. As people we get caught up in every day routines that we don't realize how beautiful the world is. The nature that surrounds us is breath-taking and we take our world for granted. Go ahead and trash it... Let your world be dark and dirty, but I want my world to be clean and brighter everyday when I awake. I see the world as a gift and everyday we are living is a challenge. How could we make the world a better place? How could we protect ourselves from harm without damaging the world of others? How do we become better? When I look up at the sky... I am reminded of him. It reminds me of the beauty of his smile, his amazing laugh that sings with the birds, and the sun radiating light upon his eyes, making them sparkle under the horizon. My world is you and everyone around me. Most importantly it reminds of my GOD whom I ...

Our Chapter is Finally Over

-
Many times it could be so hard, I have to throw away my card, The chapter of you is finally over, There are no more clovers, You left and I accept, Your memories is all I kept, You were someone I won't forget, At times I feel you near me yet, You are so far from me, My love is beyond the sea, It seems like you don't care, As if all I touched was teared, Look into my eyes and see me fall apart, You no longer will have my heart, Yet when I see your smile, You make my world worthwhile, This is what I look for, To walk along the shore, Feeling the wind against my cheek, I imagine myself at the top of a peak, Holding you tight, We will shine under the beauty of this light, Now I realize that this is only a dream, I will no longer fall in your scheme, I will find someone like you, Someone who will always be true.
