I am so over you now
Over all the feelings some how
Through with all the tears and fears
They no more plague my ears
I cannot even begin to recall
Those events both big and small
Like when you told me no
And softly told me to go
Memory of us fails to come
No thought, not even one
No recollection of our hot fires
Of how we displayed our desires
There is no picture I can see
Lying together, you and me
Or how I tasted of your love
You beneath, with me above
No feelings come to mind
Not one of any kind
How I felt about my new life then
Of just how lonely I had been
My soul does not yearn to mate
As when ours learned to relate
That great sense of finally living
When we learned about true giving
This body remembers not the dawn
When to yours it was drawn
It’s not stilled in this morning’s frost
No, it is not cold and totally lost
I am not nearly, merely able
To recollect anything and enable
Myself to see the when and how
Because I am so over you now

loved it
....and yet you speak so explicitly about all that you cant remember- you mention every detail that you seem to fail to recall-and I am to take it at face value that you are ,'so over you now'I cant help sadly smile after reading this I could almost add the line if only this was true-but then it is totally my interpretation of a very well written poem that has managed to touch my heartstrings

This kind of reminds me of the song by Carly Simon..."You're so Vain, I bet you think this song is about you?" ... I read the underlying meaning within this. Beautifully written with heartache.
