i remember your morning breath, & how you tasted at each stoplight / i remember your tenderness, & how you pursued your Love despite / i remember your sarcastic wit, & how it overcompensated for your size / i remember a thousand walks, & how your hand felt right in mine / i remember you singing in the passenger seat, even if it was just twice / i remember you being the genius that my zelda skills hid behind / i remember each moment i held you as you cried, & each look in your eyes / i remember your beauty, & how it left me blind / i remember your skill with words, & how i wish i had even half of it just to write / i remember talking for hours before drifting asleep to you on skype / i remember hurting you as if you weren’t the best gift in my life / i remember how i never knew hell until you said goodbye
