Please Recollect

PLEASE RECOLLECT
Recollect when we drink from the
Same tea
And feast on the same meal.
Recollect our moon light dream,
When I call, you talk like
Words are too small to express
Your love.
Recollect when we hold hands to
The store
Beside that leveled lawn
To buy your favorite toys,
Recollect how I admire your voice
And your coiled dreadlocks
That makes me rejoice.
Recollect whatever the offense
I always forget, and wouldn't 
Even comment.
Recollect when you told the
World 
We where best of friends without
Full stop
Recollect as I shared your tears
When I also wept
Inside the book shop.
Recollect as my lips pampered your
Hips
And whispered into my feelings,
Recollect the avenue we first
Meet,
You wore this avocado green
Dress,
With that black skirt, and
Looked exactly as my princess.
Recollect that very song that 
Made your eyes melt,
Recollect when my shoulder
Used to be your head rest.
Please Recollect,
You promised to be my jewel.
Today, you push your face to the
Left 
And destroy my name inscribed
On your chest,
Will I ever see you again?
Where on earth will
I meet your blend?

Would you still be my friend?
