Faded Reminisce

I vaguely remember him

His warm breath and radio eyes

I remember the way he buttoned up his shirt 

Counting each button up to his chin 

Where he would brush his hand across his jawline

And turn to me with a smile

I remember the nights his hands found me like clockwork

He always left too soon

But I tattooed his smell on my chest 

So he wouldn't feel so far away

I remember when love became past tense

And ever since I rarely remember anything at all
