Evermore

 

Picture by Jonathan Rincon

I pictured us together

Ever since you kissed me on the 29’s upper deck

That day you told me you had found a reason

To come back to this city of light and dark.


Ever since I saw you seated on that chair

Right in front of me

Wearing your green t-shirt

I haven’t been able to see anything else

You blinded me with your beauty

You claimed my name and made it yours.


The hours and nights we spent together

I keep them all dearly

Like a dwarf do with gold

Every single caress of yours

Every single kiss of yours

Every single word of yours

Every single tear of yours

Every single grin of yours

They are my biggest treasures

They are my biggest possessions.


Now you’re back on your side of the world

Far away from where I stand

But for me, you’re still here

Lying next to me

Or so I wished

So I could caress your sunny hair until you fell asleep.


I miss your essence in the mornings

Your wildness before going to sleep

I miss your jokes and your wisdom

I just wish you were here.


I sometimes want to tell you everything

Free the words and let them ride wild

I sometimes wonder how would it feel to be yours

And how would you react holding the truth in your hands.


I think you know already

You probably did before I did

I would love to know if you think about me

In the same way, I do about you.


There is time and space between us

But would you let me come closer to you?

Would you leave the door opened and keep the keys for me?


I will wait until the sun and the clouds become one

I will wait until my heart stops beating for you

And will only do it to keep me alive

I will wait until I won’t anymore

And your memories feel like an “illicit affair”

Just like the song I sang for you that Sunday over lunch

Or maybe I will just do so, evermore.
