Remembering Is Easy

Surprised by the colorful tears

I splashed on the wall as people cheer

Outside my room with their phones and beers

All I did was scan my space as if you were here

As my skin feels the softness of my bed

A picture of your stare is all in my head

Nothing I can do but play your favorite songs instead

As if they contain the words you’ve left unsaid

Remembering is easy

Reliving is playing a tragedy

How could I ever erase your marks on me?

Especially the ones I can hardly see

One day I wake up and stood

Picked up my broken pieces as I should

Creating a mosaic of emotions you misunderstood

That I will never show you even when I could
