I only remember her eyes...

I only remember her eyes...

and even then
I could not tell you
what color they were

I only remember her eyes
two glowing ellipses of bright
I remember nothing of her

just her eyes
as they didn't stare
did not glance
but simply looked into mine

the subtle shiver as she slid into my soul

I only remember her eyes
and how the corners curled
upwards like what would be a frown
if they were not a smile

No recollection of lips
or the blush in her cheeks
No remembrance of skin
or the count of her freckles

her smile is lost in my mind
somewhere, hiding in a back corner,
of which I am sure I have many

others are filled
with her name,
her hair color and style,
her, I'm sure, button nose,
with nostrils the perfect shape
though I don't know
what that would be

I only remember her eyes
and yet I wonder
how much she remembers of me
