Saying your name still feels familiar.
Like an old friend, from many moons ago.
It’s as if my heart’s memory
Hasn’t caught up to the rest of me
And the choice to un-know you.
It still wants to hold you
In a dear place, reserved for friends, lovers
And all those in-between.
Oh yes, saying your name still feels familiar
So I hope you don’t mind if I repeat
Just until I fall fast asleep.
Your name still feels familiar
