That place called 'you'

MELTING IN YOUR EYES, DREAMS THAT GO NOWHERE

reasons to change everything, that heartbreaking despair

and yet I cant change, I am what I am

Isn't it enough for you, that in this moment I care?

words that mean nothing, silences that speak

into the night we go, into a world that soaks..

In quiet pauses, in empty noises, in meaningless memories...

....in endless embraces

dawn is about to break, what do I have to gain

there's warmth in your arms, I don't even know your name

But I do know you,  

the color of kohl in your eyes, the scent of henna in your mane 

nights end, suns rise, 

each night, I see you

I see you in despair, and I see your despair, 

the hint of a tear in your eyes, 

telling me to change

But what I am to do, I am what I am 

Isn't it enough for you, that seasons go by,

I am with you, for you I've cared?

Why should I make memories

for they've always failed me 

why should I ask what you are called 

and have a name to remember you by

Why should I cherish our talks 

Keep them bottled as pickled memories

why should I open a jar and pull out a conversation

and read a chapter to remember you by

Why should I mark my skin

with the softness of your indelible touches

why should I seek to find you

in the sweetness of your intimate kisses

Why should I tell you about myself

Little anecdotes to piece me by

why should you care who I am 

Isn't it enough, that I love you in this moment?

A little piece of you I shall always keep

in the deepest part of my soul

Marked by no name, tagged as no memory,

bound to my inner self, linked to my destiny

The place I retreat to when I think of 'you'.
