The Onslaught Of Time (Fading Love) Poem by Michael Fischer

My muscle memory fades
With the onslaught of time

That is...

My muscle memory of you
Inside my dwindling arms

Your soft skin grows hard
Hard to remember
As my heart follows suit
On this wintry night

My emperor butterfly kiss
Once guided by the wind
Gets returned nowadays
Because lamentably
It can't find its way to you
And neither can I

But I'm the one who's lost
Lost without you here Love

I miss you!
