Don't forget to smile. No one else does it like you. Smile like you can light up a room or the entire universe with just one flash of your teeth. Like the end of twilight and the break of dawn both rest on the parting of those lips. Like he will stay until eternity just to bask in that warmth. Don't forget. Just smile.

Don't forget to breathe. No one else can do it for you. Inhale like the secrets of the other realm are entering your being. Exhale like the weight of this world is being released from you. Breathe like there's no tomorrow and yesterday is something you no longer recognise. Breathe for now. Just this moment. Breathe.

Don't forget tenderness. Nothing in the world can take that away from you. You are tender like the soft blue sky painting those white clouds just for you. Like the magical golden hour with green fading to dusk and birds flying back home. Like a lingering night spent in his arms. Just soft. And tender.

And don't forget to cry. Because it's the only thing that's left to do. Cry like all the lifetimes that went by didn't exist. Like you didn't spend all that time breaking each other's hearts and chipping away at your souls. Like there was a time and space when things were perfect. Cry to cleanse. Cry to release. Just cry. Now.
