Lost Memories

By Ahura Werewolf

I lay in a snow drift

not knowing who or what I was.

I rise to my feet and shake my pelt

I look around the cold winter air

stinging my eyes causing me to squint.

A flash of a beautiful face

of soft fur

and a warm heart creep into my mind

I shake my head thinking I don't know the face

I don't even remember how I ended up in the snow.

I walk on through the forest racking the empty shelves of my mind

wondering who I am or even what I am.

I come to a frozen pond

I look at my reflection on the ice

I see two yellow eyes stare back

they are staring into the depths of my soul.

In my mind I soft voice whispers my name.

I answer back saying "who are you."

The voice replies "your love"

My memories flood into my mind

I remember falling asleep so tired

my body like a piece of lead.

The shelves of my mind restocked

all of them precious like jems I am whole

again.
