the first time you didn’t recognise me
i was prepared
i knew it was to come
and i know it will come again <\/p>\n\n\n\n

yet the time stopped flowing for a second
everything flashed before my eyes <\/p>\n\n\n\n

blue tracksuit you used to wear, white socks <\/p>\n\n\n\n

a book in your hands
and there by your side
a little girl devouring every word<\/p>\n\n\n\n

movies we watched on cassettes
your songs your gingerbread and the drawing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

how could you forget, i ask myself, how could you
all those days
which i loved so much, which now taste bittersweet<\/p>\n\n\n\n

i know it’s not your fault
but still, it smells of a betrayal
you didn’t truly watch me grow
we both have missed too much
so many things are hanging between us, untold<\/p>\n\n\n\n

but it’s okay<\/p>\n\n\n\n

i had this strange dream once
where you devastated asked me for forgiveness
don’t worry, i whispered<\/p>\n\n\n\n

i forgave you then and i forgive you now
remembering everything we created
remembering who you were and what we meant to each other<\/p>\n\n\n\n

even now
the first time you didn’t recognise me<\/p>\n\n\n\n

you are kind
and sweet
you don’t recall me but i recall you<\/p>\n\n\n\n

even now
if someone was to threaten you like in that dream<\/p>\n\n\n\n

i would stand in front of you
and took that dagger
took it right in my heart
remembering
the start<\/p>\n
