When your hair gets damp from winter fog
When you come across a famished stray dog
When you journey up a pine covered mountain
When your step sinks into snow that’s freshly fallen
When you pass a stall filled with Oriental charms
When the wind wails eerily in torrential storms
When you forget to clip your toenails for days
When you visit a mall and get lost in the maze
When Whiskey with water is ordered at the bar
When the rainbow pulls up after a sunny shower
When you bump your knee or nick your thumb
When a drive in the rain makes your fingers numb
When you recall in winters how cold my feet would be
When our being together was the only time we were happy
When yellow blossoms overwhelm amaltas trees
When your heart aches with the weight of memories
When you rummage through the debris of our dreams
When the mind feels like it’s coming apart at the seams
When you can forgive this disguised heart, finally
Just that one last time, think of me.
