The You That I Knew

Don’t worry,

I shall remember.

I have bottled everything up tightly.

The sound waves of your favorite songs hum safely tucked in a yellow jar.

Drops of blue from your eyes swim lazily in a crystal vial.

Blades of grass that furnished your stargazing spot sleep in a wooden box.

Don’t worry,

my one and only lonely star,

a museum of you

sits in my heart.

The you that I knew

lives on in my soul.
