Memory

The memory of you

crying in my arms

torments my brain.

The tears burn my skin.



What do they symbolize?

Are they a ploy

to get me closer...

to see if I shall weep too?

Do I remind you

too much of him?



As you lie in my arms

A single tear roles

down my cheek

exploding onto your nose.

You look up,

We gaze into each others

eyes, wondering why?



I cannot hold your gaze for long,

for soon my eyes will be filled with

the watery sadness,

I know that

your love will not be mine for long,

it can't be, you still yurn for him.

I just want to be able to hold you

for at least one more night.
