When I Remember Poem by Gabriella Franco

When every day is yesterday
I know pain is here to stay
When I can't see into my eyes
That's when I need to cry
When my eyes sparkle green
That's when I want to bleed
When I know that I am numb
That's when I need to love
When it's forever the 16th of November
That's when I don't want to remember
Whenever I think about the word 'love'
That's when I want to cut
When I can't feel my bleeding wrist
That's when I remember this:
Someone said, 'Don't forget,
Baby, In my eyes, you are perfect.'
