Accepting this parting

I must remember you
every word lovingly spoken
every look and gesture
your touch...
The scent of you
oh, your smile
each time we loved
and made love...
Your hair all mussed
The way you ran your tongue
over your lips... sensuously
I must get my memories
of us together...
Maybe when I have everything
in its place...
I can accept this parting
and go on with my life.
