some days now
i forget the details
wiped
from a blackboard
your eye color how you smiled shape of your nose
carried away like d u s t
i me or someone
did not even notice the moment
even how your voice sounded
when you called me daddy
how you laug h e d
size of some hands in mine
that is not my hand
games you played
favorite star wars characters
some
how
fragile lines
disintegrated
in to just . . . just left over
chalk dust on an eraser
but but but but what the dust told
THRIVES IN MY SOUL!
how my heart jumped when I held your hand
the comfort when we snuggled in bed
the gut-wrenching pain when you went away
and my love
neither time nor death shall erase my love for you
for every second of every day
my love for you remains true
that truth gets me through my dark days
when my memories of you have eroded away
I love you.
