when
i am
dead
and
long forgotten
certain
truths
will remain

i loved

(though she never knew it)

i lived

(though it wasn’t with her)

i cried

(for the longing i feel for her)

and
this
singular moment
right here

we shared
you
and
i

maybe not
at
the
exact same time

but
it was ours
together

thank you
for
the
company
