I remember the last time
like it was yesterday
though it must have been
over 6 years ago.
It was June, I know that.
If I knew it would
be the last time,
I would studied
each moment.
I would have memorized
every freckle,
every dimple,
until I could trace you
with my eyes closed.
I still think about you
every day.
You were my first,
and the last thing
I think about every night.
I browsed photos
of you and her this morning;
she is so happy
like I could have been.
But alas it was not meant to me.
You were never
supposed to be mine,
but I am forever yours.
