Void

I just wish I could remember you better
I just wish that brief moment of intimacy hadn't been so fleeting
The soft touch of your lips imprinted itself in me
As something soothing in the eye of the maelstrom
You were something to hold on to amidst the chaos
The turbulence around and inside me
And I recklessly let myself drift away
Into other arms and other mouths and other worlds
Into myself and the crowd
And forget everything but the remembrance of something sweet.
