Have You Forgotten How To Love Me Poem by Khethiwe Ramathuthu

Have you forgotten how to love me?

You used to hold me up like a trophy you could not put down.

You used to show me off like a rare diamond and now you do not even look up when I come back from work.

Your kisses are saved only for special occasions and you do not hold my hand any more.

Have you forgotten how to love me?

You used to look into my eyes and know if I was happy or sad and now all of a sudden I have to tell you how I feel.

or maybe, could it be that you have forgotten how to love me.

Hello my love, my name is me, the woman you have been married to for 10 years.

Remember how you used to love me
