Five Senses to Remember
I want to see,
Pry her open wide,
See and watch memories,
Cry with her, not for her,
Look at her with genuine understanding,
Please, let me?
I want to touch her,
Rest my head on the shoulders that held many,
Press my forehead to hers,
Connect myself once more,
Please, let me?
I want to talk to her,
Give advice,
Converse till the new sun rises,
Say: “I love you”
Please, let me?
I want to hear her,
That sweet melodious voice,
Forever for all eternity.
The laugh that makes ears perk up,
Please, let me?
I want to smell her,
That perfume,
Sometimes a bit much,
Rolette’s Secret,
Please, let me?
Time has come,
I must remember:
The memory, touch, voice, smell, and words,
I can never live without,
Mother.
Please, live forever?
