She Remembers

Soft blue tears fall down her face. She sees so many memories flash before her eyes. She wants so much to return to them.

the comfort of his touch, the taste of his lips. the beat of his heart. the peace and easiness he brought to her. the hands that travel her body with such needing and urgency. the strength he showed her. the secret she gave to him and that he took. the way he would look at her. his soft hands in hers. the pain in his eyes.

All these things come to her like it was seconds ago. She remembers everything with such vibrancy.

But these are her memories and she cannot live in the past, though it would’ve been nice. She doesn’t know how to reach him now. So she will hide these things and put them away with all things left unsaid and undone between them.

She will always remember.

  • Thank you for that comment. I find that at times I can’t write what I feel, others seem to capture it for me! Thank you again for the encouragement….

    Very true ma the past no matter how sweet is just that the past and if it’s this type of situation you must let it be set in the back of your mind so you can move on
