I forget

I try to forget but then I remember
What I used to feel
A touch, a word
Standing in the hallway
On the brink of the room
Your shadow casting ghosts

I didn't forget, I remembered
What I felt
Your kiss, your tongue,
Entwined as grape vines
On the edges of my soul
Elusive wisps running away

And I stand, looking out the window
Thinking of nothing really
My mind drifts
And just for tonight
I taste mint and chocolate
As you kissed me goodbye.
