I Can't Remember, But I'll Never Forget...

I can’t remember the color of your eyes,

I’ll never forget the smell of your perfume.

I don’t recall exactly how tall you were,

But I remember how you lit up a room.

I can’t remember the feel of your touch,

I know your love from the times we spent.

You were always there, ready to listen,

When I was angry and needed to vent.

I can’t remember what you looked like,

So I’m grateful for the photos we took.

When I’m sad and I need you with me,

I feel your presence with just one look.

I can’t remember every gift you gave,

Or all the sacrifices you had to make.

But I’ll never forget how much you cared,

Every choice that you made for my sake.

I can’t remember the year you passed,

Or where I was on the day you died.

But I’ll never forget how my heart felt,

And how long I broke down and cried.

I can’t remember every memory we shared,

But I’ll never forget that each was special.

For every birthday or Christmas day,

Spending it with you was always crucial.

I can’t remember any time since,

At the special celebrations we share,

That I don’t look at your photo and cry,

And wish you could have been there.

I will never forget your loving smile,

Or how special you made me feel.

It’s not fair you went home so soon,

My life without you just doesn’t feel real…
