What Can'T I Forget

our flesh brushing against each other, leaving mine tingling even after you are gone. your spoken words, ever gentle, ever dear, making me breathless, light-headed, free. my hand in yours, grasping, caressing, I revel in the strength, the security it gives. moments of insanity, lost in your eyes let me drown there forever, just gazing at you. I could trace the contours of your face close my eyes and do it from memory I could whisper and call out your name taste its sweetnees on my lips all these I can’t forget. yet all these I also regret.
