In case I should forget you.

And for the first time, 

I wonder if you are thinking of me.

I think of you so often.

There are others thinking of you too.

They remember you as fondly as I.

It's your birthday soon.

I wonder who you will be celebrating with.

I don't think I can make it, 

I'm sorry.

Sometimes I wish you were here, 

There are so many things I want to show you.

I have to say

That you come to see me at the strangest times, 

Like this morning when I had to leave, 

You were there in the mirror with me.

I remembered your blue eyes

And I couldn't help but describe them

With mine.

I find an unconventional beauty

In these moments of remembrance,

And a feeling that I don't want to let go of

In case I should forget you.
