and where I feel threatened
awash in the apathy that resounds
with deafening silence to blind

aching to remember what was
interspersed with what is
fragmented memories fading

call unto it again.
please, awaken it anew
enliven it once more

believe in it thrice
hold it close twice
and love it just once.
