If I was in the library of your mind for a while,
I would place the smell of coffee next to the memory of you learning how to ride the bicycle
so you would remember that you have to start in order to find your balance

I would erase the feeling of sunlight on your skin
so you would experience it again for the first time
I would help you blur the mental image of your self-imposed imperfections
because feeling beautiful is a decision.
Maybe tamper with the spelling of your name,
just to mess with you.

I realized that our existence can only be mirrored in the minds of others
and my favorite reflection was in yours.
so I won't touch your memory of me.
But I would selfishly hide a tiny piece of my laugh into your favorite song,
So you would remember my stupid jokes
And maybe laugh alone like the weirdo you are.
I won't read any of the things you didn't tell me about you, I promise

This is goodbye, oh beautiful human,
but before I disappear from your head,
Ι would immerse myself into the deepest shadows of your unconscious mind.
And I would hide these lines into your nightmares,
so the next time you face your demons
You might think that someone loved you.
