I will forget her
though her taste is still upon my lips
and her voice speaks within me,
her touch as upon my skin
and her passion,as it was,
with all its so sweet demanding urgings,
vivid,recent
pleadings before the satiations which we knew
with fingers probing
now the solitary air surrounding hollow spaces
which she so briefly,nearly,filled
and with the passings of the morrows,
like layered dusty heapings of spade to grave
burying deep her image,still yet warm,
though so briefly so,
as all that has lived-
finally turned heat to cold-
my heart to withdraw,withdraw,
till at last withdrawn,
closed up within itself,
untouchable,
like hers-
I will have willed it to forget.

Excellent - I liked the way you used repetition to convey even deeper emotions - not an easy task to carry off. But you did it quite well.
