Sweet Memory

I can't explain
Why your face is haunting me
Why I can feel your tight embrace
When you're not here

You're just a memory
Of a love that's long since passed
Yet I can see you, hear you, touch you
In my dreams

I heard the words
You used to say so long ago
I felt your heartbeat
Laid my head against your chest

I felt my tears
Form salty puddles on your shirt
Watched you smile and pull me close
Like you always did

Then I woke up
You disappeared with no good-byes
Left naught behind but empty space
And an aching heart

And now my tears
Break on the floor because you're gone
And yet you're here.. haunting me
Sweet memory

Nice piece.. I really like the last two lines.
The emotion and longing is great in this.. subtle, but still super powerful.
As usual, a really great write. c:
