Losing the Memories
I used to remember your face,
But that has escaped me now.
I used to remember your touch...
Your smell...
But it's all gone,
Just a fading memory of you.
I try to hold on,
Force myself to remember,
But it's gone,
And I cannot get it back.
First I mourned the loss of my life with you.
Now I mourn the loss of my memories of you.
I wish I could bring them back,
To rid myself of this guilt.
But it has to be this way,
To move on to a new love,
A new life.
I don't know why you were taken,
All our dreams stolen,
But it's time to make new ones,
For myself and our son.
My memories may be gone,
But not how you touched my soul,
And that is what I will always carry with me.
