The One My Heart Cannot Forget
by Pepper Basham
copyright 05-29-2003


Age Rating: 16 to 127

 
Memories drift into my mind as shadows cloak the coming night.
Thoughts of a forgotten time disguised within a moonbeam’s light.
Your embrace consumes me here, within this silence I have met,
A second now to linger on the one my heart cannot forget.

I’ve mimicked living, even love, convinced that kindred hearts are torn.
But fantasy soon will dissolve and leave no rose within the thorn.
A leap too great for me to take, leaving the peaceful place I’ve set,
But I cannot deny his hold; the one my heart cannot forget.

You follow me throughout the day, though I avoid your memory.
I catch your scent across the wind or hear your whisper calling me.
Should I return into the hands which left my spirit with such debt?
Would you be willing to reply, oh one my heart cannot forget?

Now feelings dull, but I felt life when wrapped within your tenderness.
I knew great love, but also pain, is heaven worth the certain risk?
The night slips by, but daylight dawns within this soul inclined to fret.
I’ll find you, lover, stranger, friend; the one my heart cannot forget.

Pepper,
Extremely poignant and heartfelt. Very well written and I particularly like the questioning tone of the poem.

Pepper - Truly a great work. Such a simple line: "The one my heart cannot forget" - but so profound!
