As I Remember Us

longing must have found me again, for you are in my dreams once more. your beautiful name, your beautiful eyes, remain with me. i do not know where your hands are now, but your smile still stays. you are every one of my smiles. on a road broken into fragments, time stands still in the very same place. i watched you through the same moment, again and again. i hid you, again and again, from myself. the passing of time is a lie. without meaning to, i lost myself in dreams. because nothing changes except this moment. a few photographs remain in my hands, while the ache of your absence wanders through my room. and even now, after all this time, you are still in my dreams. If the very essence of sin is loving you, let hell be my punishment.
