The days you've been aware
The moments I couldn't ignore
The time you hardly spared
The occasions you surprisingly cared
I need to remember.

The smile—
no longer wider,
even when met by coincidence.
The eyes—
no longer linger,
irrespective of incidence.
I need to remember.

With hands of the clock
rotating in circles
with seasons
shifting in cycles
We drifted apart,
but ahead and parallel.

Nothing was ever a coincidence,
let alone the distance.

I need to remember
because
soon after every realisation,
I tend to forget
the ignorance you never claimed.\n\npablo p
