Linger

I was once apart of you that your mind wouldn't erase.

I kept your heart beating at a normal pulsating pace.

A drum beat with a crazy rhythm whenever you saw my face.

Your body quivered from head to toe because your soul couldn't escape.

Do I suppose to apologize for being your every existence?

Should I run and hide when you and I are close in distance?

Is it polite for me to love you even when you are in resistance?

Can I hand you my heart to show you my assistance?

I regret the fact that love grows with no direction.

And it will take over your body and mind with no warnings or inspections.

It dies on its own, and re-births with its resurrection.

Please don't forget me, because it's me you see in your reflection.
