My Lost Love

As I walk down the beach
I see you at a far distance
As we get closer and closer
It seems as if time crawls
Almost stopping yet the minutes
Tick by slower and slower as I
Anticipate seeing you
As my heart beats faster and faster
Walking closer and closer
I see you in a mirage as someone
I use to know and love
It's like your in a fog
Trying to get out 
To escape to leave
To make your way out back to me
I look up and your standing in front of me
I see your eyes glisten in the sun
Your face says it all
I kiss you
Holding you close 
Never letting you go
You broke my heart when 
You ask me what my name is?
Your accident wiped your memory of me
I'm nobody and then I leave.

Darlene De Beaulieu December 23, 2021 at 4:00 PM Hello Okigirllsrock, oh how awful for you. I sense that you are doing better now. Okigirlsrock, walk a bit every day several times a day to ge your strength back. Losing a memory of a person it would be hard to explain to them who you are. Merry Christma\s& Happy New Year. Hugs. Shirley Hudson December 23, 2021 at 1:52 PM I know I can't even imagine being put in this situation. I had a head injury 2 yrs ago short term memory loss just now starting to walk. After completely losing your memory of that one person how do you really explain to them who you are and if you do won't that mess them up even more. Merry Christmas.
