Romantic Memories

Scent of roses
        still linger between 
                       the sheets I sleep on.

Touch of her skin
            against her silk dress
                      is still glued to my fingers.

Her voice still
          echoes warmly 
               even as I watch Larry King Live.

I still have the white
       shirt with her red lip-stick,
                     preserved like a Holy Grail.

I still remember
          every detail in our conversation
                   before she took a flight to a new opportunity....
