"Take Me Back To The Night We Met"
<p><sup>May our parts never cross again...</sup></p><p><sup>Not by fate, not by chance or by the careless drift of time.</sup></p><p><sup>Let the universe be against our intertwining till eternity.</sup></p><p><sup>May the traces of your presence never recognize my shadow,</sup></p><p><sup>as though I were a stranger carved from silence.</sup></p><p><sup><br/></sup></p><p><sup>Let the universe wage war against any thread that dares to weave us together.</sup></p><p><sup>Let destiny forget our names in the same sentence.</sup></p><p><sup><br/></sup></p><p><sup>I hope you suffer a gentle dementia of everything that concerns me-</sup></p><p><sup>not out of cruelty, but out of necessity.</sup></p><p><sup>Forget my voice, forget my warmth,</sup></p><p><sup>forget the chapters we wrote with trembling hands.</sup></p><p><sup><br/></sup></p><p><sup>I hope the last alphabet of my text taunt you till you wish to twitch time aback. </sup></p><p><sup>But time runs a million miles away from you.</sup></p><p><sup>May time itself refuse to rewine in your favor.</sup></p><p><sup><br/></sup></p><p><sup>Take me back so I can warn the younger and naive version of myself-</sup></p><p><sup>to read the room, to run, to turn around, to read in-between the lines-</sup></p><p><sup>because in those lines the truth of your cruelty lies.</sup></p><p><sup><br/></sup></p><p><sup>Let the wind scatter every echo of your name</sup></p><p><sup>until even the air fail to pronounce you beside me.</sup></p><p><sup><br/></sup></p><p><sup>Let the wind of forgetfulness blow the fragrance of your perfume away</sup></p><p><sup>still stalked in-between the lines of my nostrils,</sup></p><p><sup>with prayers to never know what you look like or hear from you forever.</sup></p><p><sup><br/></sup></p><p><sup>And if the universe ever grows foolish enough</sup></p><p><sup>to attempt a re-union,</sup></p><p><sup>may the heavens revolt on my behalf,</sup></p><p><sup>may constellations shift,</sup></p><p><sup>may seasons run out of time </sup></p><p><sup>may gravity loose it's grip just to keep us apart!</sup></p><p><sup><br/></sup></p><p><sup>And should you ever feel the urge to return?</sup></p><p><sup>Should you ever feel the urge to reach out? </sup></p><p><sup>May the path be swallowed by the same silence, distrust you left me in.</sup></p><p><sup>For I have outgrown the version of myself that once loved you.</sup></p><p><sup><br/></sup></p><p><sup>For I have mastered the art of</sup></p><p><sup>letting go than my first name.</sup></p><p><sup>I have ereased the illusion that it could have been better.</sup></p><p><sup><br/></sup></p><p><sup>And if memory must keep you tethered,</sup></p><p><sup>let it haunt you only long enough to teach you the weight of losing me.</sup></p><p><sup>For I am walking away with all the versions of myself I gave you, </sup></p><p><sup>and this time, I leave nothing behind.</sup></p>
