My gift to you, our memories that bring pain.

For in him. . .
ย ย ย ย You will see me. . .

For in him. . .
ย ย ย ย You will see us. . .

For in him. . .
ย ย ย ย  You will smell morning cups of coffee. . .

For in him. . .
ย ย ย ย  You will see our passion filled nights. . .

For in him. . .
ย ย ย ย ย ย You will smell the odor of my skin. . .

Even after years have passed, it will be subtle.
ย ย ย ย ย ย  For in him, you will always see me.
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย no happy ending, no escape.
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย  - you will always see me
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย  even subtly , part of you is mine. . .

I'm sorry, for pain.

I'm sorry, for the rage.

I'm sorry, for feeling innate.

I'm sorry, for the mistakes.

For in your divine perfume,
   I am a little man, but a little man,
       who caged you.
          In you, I saw me,
              Each mistake a rosy chorus of mockery,
                     Forgive me.

Sleep my beloved, upon the field of stars.
ย ย ย ย Ardent and bright, in the nothingness that awaits.
______________
I hear your whispers upon my heart,
ย ย  I hear its beating in response,
ย ย ย ย  I laugh and I cry at the same time,
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย  in this pleasure grief but endures,
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย  but my happiness lasts unchanged
______________
Sleep my beloved, hear my lullaby.
in the nothingness of the cosmos, paint me a sign upon constellations
-Towards our future meeting,
ย ย ย ย  unaware, we are already there
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย for in you my soul dies,
ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย and my heart sleeps.

"you can be anything"-mama said
       But I couldn't, I wanted to be his
            Death took him from me

I can spend thousands of dollars and hours,
  only to look in the mirror,
    & notice everything I am not.
