He turned his eyes up to mine,
And held my wandering gaze.
He whispered "I love you."
And somehow I believed him.
No one just cared for nothing,
Or loved without intent.
But here we were, him and I,
Knowing there weren't any strings.
"I love you too." I said,
Turning my head to see his smile.
That beautiful smile would forever entrance me,
And keep me safe in his arms.
We didn't have to prove it to anyone,
No one but each other.
He knew the truth, as did I,
We didn't need to discuss it.
"Someday I want to get out there,
And take you to the stars."
I nod my head and smile,
Knowing dreams can come true.
He seems so fanciful in his thoughts,
But I know deep down he believes it all.
"If anything happens, I'll fight to save you."
"I know." I whisper.
So many times he pulled me away from death,
And everytime my eyes held thanks.
So long ago that was...
When I could believe that dreams existed.
Reality was but a dream, and I was safe,
Now I was completely alone.
He left a long time ago,
And it will take awhile to get over it.
I'm trying to forget,
But memories keep coming back.
Even though he's gone, part of his heart remains,
The only thing he left for me to keep.
I remember him in every way,
But sometimes I wonder...
Does he remember me?
