As a picture from my past
There you were
Right in front of me
Finally!
I could reach out my hand ever so easily
And touch your known face
Feel your warmth
Your life in my palm
But I didn’t

Chaos - feelings of confusion
I wanted your shoulder
To rest on
I wanted your lips to brush over mine
To whisper sweet nothings
To feel like before
Known and safe
But it never happened

The moment in time passed
It was too late
Had we forgotten?
Or was it not to be even though it felt right
Deep in my bones and deep in my soul
Was it just me who felt trapped?
And betrayed
By my body
By my memories

Was it just me who remembered?
And longed yet again
With my heart
With my soul
Was it just me?
Filled with desperation
And yearning
Once again
