"can't explain"

@Uootem

can't explain this preoccupation with a memory
    that causes my heart to languish in such musing
an enkindling nostalgia for something that has passed.

but at the simple sound of her name...
    its resonance echoes... brings back so many memories
causes my heart to unthaw... the heat of passion relived.

she has eyes that are my catalyst to love with such abandon
    because they are so stunning... and once led me to a loving heart
for her eyes once held the look of love for only me.

A love... that tasted sweeter than all chocolate and ripened cherries.

when I see her, perhaps my soul should run for shelter
    because to love someone... as much as still I love her
cant help but resent and fear what time has done to "us".

why do I cling to being so in love with that girl?
    after all this time, something deep inside me still understands
that I can't help but be so in love with the woman she became.

nothing, not even clouds in the sky, has such a soft touch
    a remembered softness that always inspires the poet to write
time may discolor my memories, but my feelings will never fade.

A love... and of this, I can't explain.
