As I lay in this dark room, in a sullen bed, whimpering in complete hurt, I close my eyes. It comes in a flood. The memories of laughter, passion, lust — and love. You sitting on my bed for the first time, not knowing where to sit. Throwing the whole checker board away because I lost another round against you. Laughing at my desk because you drew outside the line with the markers we found. Gasping at another drama as we watch our show on the projector. You holding me tight against my covers as we kiss passionately for the time. One room full of stories, within a second, flashes by and my eyes are open again.
