do you remember
when we met in the garden?

do you remember
the garden?

it had yellow roses
and an angel fountain
that made it look as though the whole world was golden
when the sunlight hit the water just right.

when we met
the sunlight was hitting the water just right.

i still remember thinking
"how could one person
be so beautiful?"

i wonder if you've ever thought the same of me.
i wonder if you've ever thought me so beautiful
it tore at you from the inside
because you wished that it could've stayed like that forever.

(you probably don't.
you've probably forgotten about me by now.)

but that's fine,
you never had to.

(never had to remember.

never had to think me so beautiful
your heart crumbles and you crumble along with it
when you realise
i'm not yours.)

because being able to know the you back then
so innocent and sweet and kind
was enough and will always be enough.

and do you remember? i made you a little flower crown of yellow roses that day.
it looked golden in your head,
made you look like the gentlest and kindest king.

i wonder if you liked it.
i hope you did.

maybe then the urge to make you another one would go away.
