Remembrance...

entry picture

This yearning that escorts my soul,

is the overture where disembodied I loved you,

though my words may sound vulnerable...

there was no place to take shelter

since time crawled upon us

 

Absent, music floated through my window...

and silence stunned everything

 

In my pain, seeing you leave;

I don’t know how not forget,

I don’t know how to extinguish what I lived, what I felt...

a profound passion that rendered tracks to my path

 

I don’t want to forget you! Although living with memories,

your image is a chimera which, without being present,

I see every instant with the same love you taught me

 

I don’t want to forget you! Because I’m not a stranger to your kisses

or your body, nor how much we sinned in every encounter

 

I don’t want to forget you! Because you overflowed me,

you spilled me, filled me with the unthinkable

and even if depleted at this volatile point ...

it is not easy to forget you

 

Look not only at the walls of this heart

see what is embedded in my soul;

your look that without consent I would take...

since it takes my life away and urges me

to create you again where love’s born

'til drowning between tears of pain

 

What to do to not lose you?

What to do to not lose my mind?

How to love without possession?

How to ignore the lips that inch by inch swept me away with each breath?

How?

 

I have no time to understand the inception of this desire

I just don’t want to forget you!

I usually switch off after the first two lines. You provided a 'hook' requiring the reader to read on. Good

Nice one Noris.

You do write some very powerful evocative and downright sexy prose.

You have passion!

Brilliant

I like that line seven...but should it be

`then silence stunned everything` ?
