Laughing, smiling faces, captured in a frame;
Frozen akin to statues in time
Love overwhelmingly evident
Watching each other’s backs
Smirking and defying every rule
Discovering life and discovering us,
Catching the stars, seizing the impossible;
Together.
But… Three years and in flew adulthood.
And you?
You were gone.
Leaving no hint, no cipher.
Lost. I was lost without you.
Should I beg? Should I cry? Should I request?
Even if I did…
It would be to no avail.
Life moved on…
It’s time for me too.
I hope you read this one fine day;
And the dripping love from my eyes opens yours.
Remember me, my friend.
Remember me; even though we both moved on.
For my friend, M, who is no longer a part of my life even though I did love her. She…was the closest thing to a sister. I screwed up. I hope you forgive me one day and remember me.
