Do You Remember

Do you remember
When you used to look at me
With a seductive smile
At your lips
And questions in your eyes?

When we used to lie awake
Until the earliest morning hours
Your hand
Curled in mine?

Do you remember
When I used to ask you
Why me?

Do you remember how I used to be?

I wondered
If I would ever
Complete the missing
Piece to my
Puzzle.

I would coil
Into the woodwork
Of my crushed velvet window-seat,
Stare off into the curves of the midnight sky,
Fingers pressed against the unruffled glass.

Do you remember the first day?

Your eyes met mine
Brimming with secrets
You dared me to
Unlock.

Do you remember
How you felt
When I walked through
The crowd
And smiled
At you,
Just you.
