Though the last touch was far back my memories,
and my lips cannot recall its last kiss,
and his face is blurred from my head,
I have depended upon my emotional attachment
to someone I am physically not with.

Tell me how do i forget someone who's absence i got used to?
How do I separate my thoughts from someone who's thoughts are not with me?

Maybe I should reminisce but with great concealment.
Maybe I should dream but not aloud.

Maybe I should love ... but silently.

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Meg, I ask myself those same questions everyday. I wish I knew the answers too. Very touching read.

Oh Meg, Great writing. Enjoyed this one much....I have always heard it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved.
Your poem brings this to my mind.  Marcy
