darling, how could i forget us? how could i forget
the way you regarded me so gently that sunny day, as if i were a
rose, your rose. remember rose? blooming all around us that sweet
smell of blue sky and flower garden and you hugging me so tight on a
picnic blanket, feeding me macarons in such a heart-melting, oh-
stop-it kind of way that im sure a mother blushed and turned her child
away. confession: im such a child around you, but in the best way
possible. you have me at my most innocent. on that sunny day in july,
i was just a silly putty of love blown in a pink bubble, forgetting about
work, society, anything boring, anything not you. when the sun set, when
we returned, i grabbed onto your arms and asked why couldn’t today
last forever? you chuckled, ruffled my hair and promised we still have
a billion more days to come. sunny days and rainy days, travel around the
world and do-nothing days. i fell asleep wondering what tomorrow
would be like, not that it mattered. i love all days, even the sad ones,
as long as it’s with you.

darling, how could i forget us? how could i forget
the way you regarded me so gently that sunny day, as if i were a
rose, your rose. remember rose? i need more roses more roses more
sweet smell of blue sky and flower garden and joints hugging me
on a picnic blanket, feeding me macarons in such a heart-skipping
kind of way that im sure a mother blushed and turned her child
away. confession: i want to crawl under your pale arms like a
child searching for warmth. you have me at my most innocent. on that sunny
july, i wanted to melt myself into a silly putty of love, forgetting about
work, society, anything boring, anything not you. when the sun set, when
we returned, i broke latching onto your arms begging for today to last
forever. didn’t you chuckle? didn’t you ruffle my hair? didn’t you
promise me forever? you chuckled, ruffled my hair and promised we still have
a billion more days to come. sunny days and rainy days, travel around the
world and do-nothing days. then i fell asleep wondering what tomorrow
would be like, not that it mattered. i love all days, even the sad ones,
as long as it’s with you.
