Heart Memories
by Louise M. Eder
 
I remember you with my heart
My mind won't say your name
I can't recall where if I knew your
who you were or who I was
 
Maybe I grew up with your or
Maybe we worked together
Or did we bowl together yesterday?
Therese Something wrong with my
memory but I do know you- and I
do love you.
 
I know I knew you
I know how you make me feel
I remember the feeling we had together
My heart remembers
It cries out in loneliness for you
For the feeling you give me now.
 
Today I'm happy that you have come
When you leave
My mind will not remember that
you were here
but my heart remembers
Remembers the feeling of friendship
and love returned
Remembers
That I am less lonely and happier
today because of the feeling
Because you have come
 
Please, please don't forget me
And please don't stay away
Because of the way my mind acts.
I can still feel you
I can still remember you with my heart
And a heart memory is maybe
The most important memory of all
