Through the confines of my memory
I forget the exact color of your eyes
Or the way they shined when you looked at me
Or how you smiled, always kind
I forget the way your legs dangled
On the side of your grandpa’s pool
And how we even got there
Or why I fell so soon
But, I do remember
The way you made me feel
Like I’d known you for a lifetime
And my pain was yours to feel
I think you fully saw me
Through the smiles
Through the haze
And I long for that connection
On those truly lonely days
I wish you would have realized
How much we needed you
To stay
