The way I used to sing your name in joy
The way we would give our lives for each other
It all seems so distant now.
Like a fading memory of a childhood
That doesn't quite seem like my own anymore.
I can no longer remember the sound of your voice
The feeling of your embrace
The warmth of your presence
Do you still think of me?
... Do you remember me?
Maybe I was too young to understand.
An idealist,
A dreamer.
Maybe I've turned into a skeptic
How can you not?
But what does a skeptic know of love?
Of hope?
Faith?
Maybe I've simply learned what it's like when someone is truly there for you
When someone can kiss you...hold you... touch you.
Maybe a distant promise is no longer enough.
Maybe I'm questioning all those ideals we used to speak of.
Was any of it true?
Truthfully I don't know where we stand anymore
But through it all there is one thing I do know
I still need you.
