Remember Me True – Original Poem

By Mark A. Leon

Another kiss in the rain
Another day by your side
A warm touch of those lips
Nothing more to hide

One last look in your eyes
To see beyond the other side
A ray of darkness; a sunrise in the night
All is forgiven on this train ride tonight

A rhyme of chaos
A harmony without words
A song that began the moment of you

Tonight, I lie on this bed listening for the past
I hear your whispers like wine
So sweet and wet they tempt me with every glass

I can’t escape these chains
They run so forcefully tight
Piercing the skin; destroying the might

I want to run once again
To the place I found you
In the dark musty room, where it all came so clear
I want to feel the first time
Lust over time

A vulnerable stance
Prisoner to your dance
I can’t hold back this truth diseased in the chase
Hidden behind the bottle I fear I lost my last embrace

So now I write this poem; perhaps a confession or two
I read it all alone
Shed a tear for you
I know we are through

From beyond this life, I look down upon you
In that smile I knew it was always you
Remember me this
Remember me true
From the moment our eyes met, I was in love with you.
