I cannot deny
that the attraction
which once was stronger
than the force of gravity
has become a faded pull

And I will not
place blame
upon anybody but Time,
his grip on our love
fracturing its essence

We will try
to salvage the feelings
that were once brighter
than the glowing stars
because I remember

I remember us
