I forgot my lines.

You looked at me across the stage with a raised eyebrow.

I nearly forgot my name.

You repeated your previous line without irony.

I forgot we were on stage.

You waited for a moment, smiling at me.

I forgot there were people watching.

You asked a question, a great prompt.

I forgot my line again.

You stepped towards me, crossing the stage with confident strides.

I forgot to breathe.

You whispered 'this is the part where you say...'

I forgot to listen to you, too busy watching your lips move.

You waited for my total recall.

I forgot what we were waiting for.

You leaned down towards me, are you okay?

I forgot everything all over again.

You said my name.

I forgot not to kiss you.

You broke the kiss and breathed my name

I remembered where we were, said my line, and bowed off the stage.

The audience applauded.

You forgot your next line.
