Forgotten
and now, the touch of her skin
will always be closer
than your memory of mine
will always be closer
than your memory of mine

Dear L,
There’s a lot in this poem that hurts. Every time I read it I have the same catch in my breath and dang those tears. All the best in the comp. Great write. H🌷

Thank you, Honoria! The comp asked for big guns and this felt like an emotion most people could relate to.

These three line are carrying a great deal of weight, on one hand I can read as payback and in your face, the other hand I can read it as only being said because of a deeply missed connection and said with sadness, that's the mark of great poetry. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you, Ahavati! I was hoping it packed some of the same punch as it did when I was writing it.

Forget shooting this. Three lines are easy to snort. And these pack a punch.

Hard hitting, contrasting the freshness of the relationship he is presently enjoying to the fading memory of what you enjoyed previously with him.
