The Memory that Never Goes Away (A Triolet Plus)

I remember Reaching for your hand before we first kissed.

I remember Enjoying the warmth of our hands touching as did our lips.

I remember Measuring my words whispered in your ear, to take you beyond bliss.

I remember Every tasted breath, before we kissed.

I remember Minutes spent together, the blood pounding in my state of light headed

bliss.

I remember Brown eyes drinking in my blue eyes, as we touched finger tips.

I remember Every tasted breath, before we kissed.

I remember Relishing the next time our hands would be closer than our lips.

I remember

the letter

you wrote

saying it was

better that

this was good-

bye, I was across

the country

and could

not test the

look in your

eyes, gone

cold. This

rememberance

is very old.
