Darling, everywhere I go
I keep seeing you.
Past the broken fences
where we used to plant those tomatoes
under the summer sky,
do you remember the poison ivy you
accidentally stepped on?
These evergreens
remind me of the time
when we kissed in the rain,
and you swallowed down
my pathetic attempt at chicken noodle.
Oh the scent of jasmine!
Is this the cafe where we first met?
The full moon reminds me
of the ghost stories we whispered to each other,
and the light in your eyes
as you mocked me for my silliness.
How I remember
this cup of coffee;
I spilled some on you on our first date.
Has it been a year already?
The calender you sent for Christmas
is covered with cross-marks,
counting down the days
when I can hold you again.
In a list
Please tell me what you think

AWWWWWWWWWWW!
this is beautiful. i love the story that this tells... it's as if i can see the relationship unfolding before my eyes. I love the images and scents and scenes you describe here-- they add to your emotion by illustrating each and everything's significance--- it's significant because they remind you of that person.

You can remove the s at the end of remind, and the flow would be smoother...
