the book reading

your scars/
my book/
the one i read/
lying on my bed/
besides my night lamp/

the one that i shall never rush/
the one that i shall never close/
the one that i shall never put down/
upon my nightstand/

the one that i shall never/
turn my back upon/
and go to sleep/

your scars/
my book/
the one that i promise to read/
day and night/
from start to finish/
and then start all over again/

your scars/
my book/
the one that i promise to read/
and not a single blank space/
and not a single pause/
will i miss/


your scars/
my book/
i read/
and i read/
and i read/

never forget to remember

i shall try and never forget/
the difference between/
the moment and me/

i shall try and always remember/

that when you got/
dreamy eyed and smiled/
that one time/
you were into the moment/
and not so much into me/

so that i can dispel/
the delusion/
that the sway in your movement/
the second time and the one after that/
and the one after that/
was due to the magic of the moment/
and not so much due to my presence/

i shall try and realize this/
for all future references/
so that i never mistake/
the moment with me/

so that i can see/
as you can see/
always only the moment/
and never just me/

so that i can be/
as you can be/
always into the moment/
and not so much into me/
