I Still Remember *(Lost Love)*

I’ve been lost in thought as of late, remembering all those things that made you special to me. The way you use to gently place your hand in the lower part of my back, leading me through crowded rooms and restaurants.I still smell the fragrance of sandalwood, it clouds the recesses of my mind, a scent that has lingered even now on the pillow where you once laid your head. Thoughts of long, slow kisses remain. I still remember the touch of your hand as it reached for me through the darkness.The sound of your voice, your deep warm breath on my shoulder inhaling and exhaling. I still remember the intimacy which we shared; constant, lingering, and complete.Some memories, like water soaked print from a newspaper left in the rain, fade away. Just like the sun brings on new beginnings and promises for a new day. I take these memories of you and spread across the bed we once shared, and lie there completely covered by your warmth, remembering you, remembering love, and what cost it paid though loss.Often times I speak your name, and wonder where you are, and what you are doing at this very moment. And as difficult as it use to be, time has passed, I have moved forward, and so have you, yet I still remember a love once so true.
