Love Poem: Immortal Memories

Immortal Memories

Many times I have tried
to forget you and move on,
but by mind has refused to
let go of your melodious beauty

When I close my eyes in the white
sands near the ocean, I see you
walking barefoot and gracefully
in the tropical breeze

When I go to meditate in the garden,
I see you resting on clean, green grass,
with a red rose decorating your beautiful,
long hair

When I look up in the sky,
I see a cloud imitating your perfect,
slender face, and the cloud-face
appearing as though it's staring at me

When I look at your picture,
I feel your gentle heart-beat,
though you are far away

The more I try to erase memories
of you, the more intense
beautiful memories of you fly back
to me, like a boomerang!
