Memory

I’ve forgotten
The taste of your kiss
The touch of your hand
The sound of your voice

I’ve forgotten them all.
Please don’t remind me.

I’ve forgotten
The magic in your smile
The intensity of your eyes
The teasing of your tongue

I’ve forgotten them all.
Please don’t remind me.

I’ve forgotten
The warmth of your touch
The weight of your body
The scent of you on my skin

I’ve forgotten them all.
So don’t come near
Don’t whisper in my ear

Please don’t.

Remind me.

This is wonderful, Ruth. The intensity from the beginning brings me in, and those last few lines hit like a punch.

Thank you both for reading and for commenting. Intense is what I was aiming for . . . . ~ R
