Description
I drank in the sun that nightImprinting the dizzying colors
Of gold and burgundy
Into my memories.
I breathed deeply that night
Trying to memorize the way you smelled
When you sat next to me in the grass.
I didn’t wear a sweater that night
So I could feel the cool breeze
Awakening goose bumps on my bare arms.
I watched your hand in mine that night
So I could always remember how our fingers looked
Laced together
Palm to palm.
I needed to feel that night
I needed to remember it
To watch it
Like an old movie
In an abandoned theater.
The sun set that night
On us
You and me
I looked away that night.

this is truly one of the most touching things I have ever read and is going down as one of my all time favourites. I can relate so much to this, its simply stunning. Its how I feel about my muse although Ive never been able to feel it tangibly and now you have captured it in words. This is beautiful honey, go spread your talent. More people should be able to read your beautiful words and appreciate your stuff like I do. Again this moved me. I love it. xxx
