closet treasures encompass me
yes, the heady scents waft
in one inhalation i'm brought before you
n'oubliez pas, my friend
n'oubliez pas
i could wish a thousand times
to gladly forget your warmth
brought from beyond the depths
murky; waters navigated in fear
tears have no meaning here
tears have no meaning here
and so i'm wrapped in a memory
a beating heart clenched in pain divine
breathe for me
breathe through me
buddha winked enlightenment
and the causal charms meander on
see my hand twitch, it won't let yours go
wait. just, stop.
et surtout n'oubliez pas de tomber amoureux

i just knocked this out, so it's a superly rough version, probably go through a few edits. n'oubliez pas means don't forget me; et surtout n'oubliez pas de tomber amoureux means, and in particular, don't forget to fall in love
