Maybe years from now
When I lie in bed
I will remember now
I will remember how you kissed the cold away from my lips
How your touch wraped my memory in you warmth forever
How we lay together
Empty and full
Happy and magical
Forever we believed
Maybe years from now
When I lie in bed
I will remember now
The way our words were our invisibility cloaks from the world
The way our bodies lay intwined
The way I could hear your heart soar and mine right beside you
Broken and healed
Left and loved
Maybe years from now
When I lie in bed
I will remember now
The way the sun streamed in through the cracks
The way it’s heat and yours carried me home
The way the sun turned to moon
The way my soul turned to you
Open and complete
Protected and given
Maybe years from now
When I lie in bed
I will remember now
How your hands discovered me
How my lips explored you
How our bodies found each other
Like a jigsaw
Fitting finally
Maybe years from now
When I lie in bed
I will remember now
The words you said
The words we whispered
The thoughts unspoken
The magic felt
The life completed
Maybe years from now
When I lie in bed
I will remember this August day
And turn to you and hope to find you say
“Let’s go back to the August we never lost.
To the August we found”
