this very moment

I was leaving yesterday
and you said you felt you had
  no one.
and you said
  "it's weird to say--
but i really
  care for you."

i told you i'd always be there for you
i'd always have your back

I remember
  back in the day
when i probably would have
  fainted
if you said that to me

but instead
i gave you a hug
  buried my face in your neck
and memorized
  this very moment.
