My poem "Small Things"

It's easy to forget the small things
When life happens and ash is left after the burning
But I remember it
The small things
The way your fingertips left goosebumps in their wake
The look in your eye when my heart was yours to take
The fear left behind when I lost it
The ache left in its place as I tried to replace it
I need them
The small things
Racing heart, butterflies dancing
Stolen kisses and love blazing
I forgot them
The small things
How you knew just what I needed when I didn't
How you put me back together when I couldn't
I loved them
The small things
Lost, forgotten and missed
Gained, remembered and embraced
Those small things
Become everything
