I'm all in

Smiles creep across my face
when thinking about you:
Your piercing eyes, soft lips,
those cheeks

Memories flood my mind
when sitting on our couch,
by the window,
where we spent many a night
talking in the dark
about the dark

I miss you
when memories breed smiles
and tears
on Blue Mondays
and rainy Sundays
But you're kilometers away

Reality disturbs my reminiscing
about yesterday's laughter
A lifetime ago
It seems.
It was real then.
It is real now-
just like my love for you

The love I feel for you
is suffocatingly liberating
And I'm all in
