i remember.

During the darkest hours of the night, I remember. When there remains nothing to fill the empty space that should be here, I remember. The hours when the darkness outside cannot penetrate my thoughts, I remember. During the times when I cannot block the pattern of my own breathing, I remember. When the hardest part of the night overcomes, I remember. When the passage of time is deepened and silence is one degree heavier, I remember. In the unwavering awareness of the light, I forget.
