Rememberance

This is a poem with the narrator recalling everything they ever loved about the one that got away.

I think I'll remember you by your eyes-

Because you only looked me in them when you told a new lie.

I think I'll remember you by your nose- 

Because you always scrunched it up when you'd let me go.

I think I'll remember you by your jaw-

Because when you stole my heart that night, you broke the law.

I think I'll remember you by your lips-

Because sometimes you'd let them brush across my finger tips.

I think I'll remember you by your hands-

And how you pulled me close with our first slow dance.

I think I'll remember you by your toes-

Because you said you weren't happy so this time I let you go.

I think I'll remember you for who you are-

Because now I'm seeing what I didn't before.

You were my anchor, just holding me back

And now that you're gone, my life is in tack.
