Love Poem: Epiphany

Epiphany

I whisper to you lullabies 
In lost directions
Maybe I have wandered too far away
To remember the way back
There is this epiphany
Cracked melodies
They remind me how it felt
When hope lingered
Somewhere in the crooks of his elbows
In the curve of his smile
Hope to finally forget you
But when has hope ever known reason?
When has hope ever defied fate?
Remember that night, under the stars?
You had tasted too much like forever
I told you, you were a part of me,
Funny,
How do you breathe without the rest of you?
How do you get over yourself?
