Like a river flows

​In between cutting an old suture

I remember how long your fingers were

How they would grip a pencil 

And how I wonder nobody else can hold it like that

While in a cab and I see a flower shop

I'd remember how you painted three flowers 

On a canvas , and I'd wonder how three entirely different species fit into a plant yet they looked somehow at home , at peace.

While I'm climbing stairs out of breath

Out of nowhere

I remember us in a train , 

Sharing a seat because you gave up your booked seat to someone else. 

How once you played Spiderman 

To my Mary Jane 

And then I wonder what are you upto these days

Do you still sing like you used to

Do you still play yiruma whenever you’re blue

Do you Jay walk everywhere you go

I hope you’re happier now though .

I hope you marry your girlfriend and I hope you get to sleep whenever you want to.

And I hope we don’t see again because I don’t know how to forgive you

 but I admire you the same.
