Nothing fixes a thing so intensely in the memory as the wish to forget it.
- Michel de Montaigne (1533 - 1592)




I am starting to forget you

Forget that I love you
Forget how you look
Forget the sound of your voice
Or how my hairs stood on end
when I was near you

I am forgetting the sensation of your lips
as they pressed against mine
imparting love, sweat and more love
into the best kiss of my life.

Sigh... yes, the kiss
- like the look
- was of love.

Oh oh,
so much for forgetting you.

Ahhh perhaps it is time for another kiss to linger on temptations doorstep sweet Sara for memories of old love fade with the awakening of a new one.

Seems more like remembering to me....but a good sign if you can write about it....as a memory....one that will linger on but with less pain within!!

Love Tinka
