5:36pm, we're sitting in a paddock

i still remember everything about you,
like the way you used to whisper my name,
and the soft upwards curve of your lips.
i remember how your eyes glowed in the sun,
like golden pools of honey and pure bliss,
so warm that i wanted to just fall sleep in them.
like maybe i could crawl into them,
and stay there forever, warm and content.
