Of forgetting and remembrance



In pain, in loss, in memory
I can draw contours of your face;
In bliss, I held you too close
To ever recall how you looked.

And yet all forgetting
Is not mere erasure,
Perhaps from there begins
Knowing and all remembering.

I wish blogs had like buttons too, there's not always something to say, but much to express.
