& even though you said
You'll always love me
& even though our hands
No longer grasp each others
& even though your lips
No longer caress my neck
I still find myself
Searching for your face
I still find myself
Listening for your laugh
While resting on your side of the bed
With Primroses planted
In the palm of my hands
& Tulips tied up
In my mess of tangled hair
I ask my mind
If it would do me some kindness
& forget about you
With your stained tee shirts
& kind eyes
& if it would just
Omit all the sweet words
That danced from your lips
& swam in my head
Only than would my heart heal
Only than would I remember to move on
With dirt crusted onto
The bottom of my feet
I dance in our garden
& slowly pick the weeds
From my heart
Even though I remember you
with clarity
