two hundred-five.

nails against the crate.

to come back,
months later,
to a face you
tried to memorize -
remembering
how difficult it
was in the beginning
refreshes your memory
now, even more,
because the face has changed
and has become
more beautiful than you
would have ever known.
and you miss that you
missed that chance -
now you're trying to
start again.
the sun is still shining
when you close your
eyes to sleep,
always remember that.
