Why Do You Remember Me?
Why do you remember me?
when your heart weeps,
when your heart breaks.
You do not know if
my heart yearns for love,
if it weeps from your abandoned,
do you not know that my heart belongs
to you? and you keep stabbing it with
knives and flavors of you,
do you not know how many months, years I
have spend in journeys searching for the flavor of
your lips, for the fragrance of your skin.
Do you not know my body is
dead till you bring it back with your touch? .
Do you not know?
Why do you remember me?
if you don't even yearn for my yearns,
if you don't even taste the essences of me,
when you touch me or kiss me. If you
could only taste me with all of your senses,
you will know then all
of my secrets of lust, all of my nights of desires,
only the twilight of my evenings and mornings,
only the time that follows my path day and night,
they know why and how my skin screams for you.
Why do you remember me my love?
I have nothing to give you
but my heart filled
with ardent and aches.
I have no more to offer you but this,
my love, my heart, theres no more then this.
No beauty, no youth,
only me what you see, what is there.
But what is there is all me, truth
unconditional, simple, humble,
honest, and all of the pharses
I've written today in this significant prose.
And of all meanings and reasons, I ask you!
why do you remember me? .
