You Remain In Me

You remain in me. Like how the stars remain in the sky, hidden in the light of the sun yet shining in the darkness of the twilight. And like a seed thrown on the golden autumn soil and embraced by a blanket of snow, you remain. When suddenly, unexpectedly blooming with the first rain of spring. You remain in the depths of me. While in the midst of passion and my racing heart I see your face. Then outside it drizzles, but inside it rains. And just when I thought the slightest echo of your laughter has faded, just when your song stopped running in my head, I'm awakened. No more. You're not with me. Yet still. You remain in me.
