Suddenly I remembered
How it felt to be in love with you I remembered your touch and your hands. I remembered it was real, that it was pure. Now i stare at the empty space that was us, that once flourished and then got rotten. Now every breath is a step forward and away from you. Now i count the days as distance, the silence as glory. Now there is no you and no us, and only now there is a space for me in I. I stand, I fight, I fear, I give up. I keep moving forward. I am. Now, I am.
