There were nights when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed
If I just listened to it
Right outside the window
There were days when the sun was so cruel
That all the tears turned to dust
And I just knew my eyes were
Drying up forever
I finished crying in the instant that you left
And I can't remember where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made
Chapter 2
I followed the boy and his aunt to a hovel built under the ground. By the time we reached their small home the suns had started to set and the wind had already started to whip up with promises of a hard and long storm. The boy pulled me through the threshold and led me down the stairs.
I found my self in a welcoming place. The air smelled of a thousand good meals that had been made in the small kitchen, and there were rugs on the sand floor that felt soft against my feet. These people weren't rich but there was love in this home and it warmed a part of my heart that had been cold for too long.
My hand was tugged at and I was pulled into a small room by Luke. He flick on the light and I was greeted by a messy room that was typical of a young boy. There were strange mechanical gadgets and tools strewn about the room. On the floor, I noticed a small half finish droid that no doubt the boy had made. I stopped and stared it awhile.
"You wanna see the droid I was building? He's not finished yet."
"He's perfect."
Luke excitedly showed me his little invention. When turned on the droid acted as an animal, a faithful pet. It could do tricks and luke delighted me with stories of how he had gotten in trouble because of small malfunctions in the little toy. His stories of mischief continued for a long while, until he was interrupted by his aunt.
"You should already be in bed Luke." she said as she opened the door. "It's getting late."
The boy mumbled an apology as he slipped under the covers of his bed. He flashed me a smile before laying down and feigning sleep. His aunt looked at me strangely before she switched off the light and slid the door shut.
As soon as the door clicked into place Luke whispered goodnight, and promptly rolled onto his side and fell asleep. I smiled faintly as I moved to his bed side and sat on the edge of his bed. Some how I knew this boy was the key to my forgotten memories that I so yearned to recover. I layed down next to the sleeping child and wrapped my arms protectively around him, vowing then to protect and care for him always.
"…my caring for you will remain."
