Memory

Did you forget me?

Because I never forgot you.

Your footsteps pressed into my soil
when you were still an innocent soul.
Your laughter, carried by my winds,
drifted far and wide
and sent all my birds into flight.

Your tears — I remember those too —
glistening in the moonlight,
falling like small diamonds
spilled from the sky.

I remember them all.
The way you once listened,
the way you once belonged.

So tell me —
did you forget me?
