Forgotten
Memories alone must sustain
it is the only thing left
once you lavished me with
gentle kisses and warm caresses,
but they have parted.
Have you forgotten
the fierce all encompassing wild-fire of emotion?
The whispers?
The way your kiss made me drunk
on love and life?
How we feared that our storm
would drown the fragrant fields
that surrounded us?
How the leaves remained motionless
even though we felt the wind blow?
The nights we missed out on sleeping
so we could talk?
Have you forgotten that I love you?
Though you are gone
your memories live on
and I shall never be alone.
