It's been so long
since I've heard your voice.
Since I've felt your touch.
I remember that fire,
that finger of flame.
That breath of smoke.
So subtle a reminder.
Internal burns.
Metaphoric scars.
Desperate to forget.
Walk away,
turn your back.
Longing to remember.
Your long lost laugh,
your forgotten smile.
Abandoned by hope.
Left behind.
Don't turn back.
Relinquished by trust.
Don't remember.
Can't forget.
Smothered by loss.
Denial,
Desolation.
Drowned by Memories.
Anguish and pain.
Animosity.
