And Something About Love Probably Goes Here.

I remember you vividly in the corners of my mind
The dusty memories of my past lying at your feet, 
And you without a care in the world.
I took my time to take you in, 
Holding your gaze, just so.
Our muscles both tightened 
As soon as summer came, 
My crown of roses bloomed
My head and heart 
Became heavy...
With you.

I remember waking up
Opening my eyes with your arms around me, 
A certain softness in your hands on my chest.
The early morning lights 
Peaking through the curtains
And dancing on our skin.
I remember you, how could I forget?
Those heavy eyes and that deepened voice.
We are content our emotions laid to rest 
Between sticky skin and warm breath.

I keep looking to you... 
These perfect pictures in my mind 
You wearing my blankets and your bedroom smile
It was then that I felt summer slipping by
I took my time
Tracing your lips
Your fingertips
All of your forget me-nots.

I still remember you in the corners of my mind, 
Just flickering in and out.
You were right, 
Maybe, I needed my heart taming its wild in you.
And just like that, 
Summer had left as fast as it came.
That first breeze of (a) fall. 
And something about love probably goes here...
