What a difference a year can make

Today is my birthday

and exactly one year ago

(I remember it well)

You took my lips in yours

and my heart in your hands

and you told me that 

you loved me

for the very first time.

I still remember the elation-

feeling as if I could fly

while you kissed me like 

I was the breath in your lungs.

Now I glance over at you across the room

with memories of us

sharpied on my heart.

Underneath the table, you're holding his hand

and it aches.
