For Him and I

Bleh

Like intoxicating kisses,

Laced with rum and scotch,

You’re fading from my memory,

As slow as an ache that started soft.

I can remember what it felt like,

The weight of your fingers laced in mine,

But I cannot recall the heat of the moment,

In that place from that time. 

Like a blind wanderer,

I led my hopeless heart astray,

Into dreams laced with spicy cologne,

Into my own trap of wishful haze. 

I know what it had felt like,

The heat of you exploring me,

Yet the feverish peaks we climbed,

Seem only like piles of dry autumn leaves. 

And somehow like a fool,

My heart still thinks of only you,

Holding my pieces together,

Perhaps only to break me in two. 

And maybe one day our kisses,

Laced with intoxicating dreams,

Will fade away from my memory,

Slow like the throbbing at my seams.

you write so beautiful and powerful, i feel your yearning and I am lost in your memories that conjure up my own. great work.

A very good poem. I like the use of lace and alcohol to make your point in the poem. Memories are hard to lose. Time is the real healer only. Great description led the reader on a journey to find some kind of peace. Thank you for the excellent poem.

Poignant write about the passing and loss of love and memories too distant to recall. Some good lines .. Slow like the throbbing at my seams , lovely
