If I Could Forget
If I could but forget your touch
Your embrace, so warm and tight
The way you sang, so sweetly much
And how your words lit up the night
If I could wipe your scent away
The taste of you upon my lips
And in silence the pleasures you lay
With all the memories I would skip
But still, the song of love you sang
Echoes deep within my soul
And though my heart may feel the pang
Of pain, it cannot let go
For every moment spent with you
Is etched forever in my mind
And though I try, I cannot do
Away with all the love I find
So I’ll embrace the memories, the pain and all,
For in them lies a beauty, a story to be told,
Of a love that once was, and still stands tall,
In the depths of my heart, forever bold.
