Linger

 Now I understand

Why others delete photos,

And leave no traces.

It's because...

These images and videos,

They bring back

So many memories and feelings.

A sudden rush of blood,

Palpitations,

As I was brought back

To that moment.

It took me even further.

The years we spent talking,

Cheering each other,

From our smallest to the biggest wins,

They meant so much to me.

I loved you,

And I think I still do.

Perhaps, some memories

Are meant to linger,

Even longer,

And even when the photos fade.
