Unforgettable

Didn't know writers block was so serious,I couldn't quite gather all my thoughts to put anything together, hence the inconsistencies . So I'm on vacation now (awesome) and daytime TV is my new best friend. I was watching the season finale of  "Will and Grace" ( really funny show might I add) and the  song " Unforgettable" by Nat King Cole is sang by two of the cast members http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFhl2ddckKc&feature=related  , call me a softy but it had me thinking of all those moments and friends in life that were oh so "unforgettable" . Sometimes we don't appreciate those people in our lives, the ones that care truly, that call, that text, that cry when you cry and hurt when you hurt. In reality all the friends we have today may not be the ones we hold dear tomorrow, but they indeed play a role somehow in the individual we are or become. So some of the most unforgettable moments are those firsts, you know, that first day at school, or first failed exam, or first boyfriend/girlfriend, first kiss, first love....those moments we wouldn't trade for money. That which transcends for me is the first heartbreak (oh dear...lol), that moment you heart stops beating and I believe the word suffocation comes to mind as all breath appears to have been lost. The funny thing is most people wouldn't trade in the love felt to avoid the heartbreak, I suppose the bigger the romance or the love the deeper the heartbreak. In recent times a friend let me read one of his poems as I was saddened by a matter;

 Moth 
I’m attracted o you like a moth to a flame 
I look into the fire and hear you calling my name 
But like the moth, drawn too close I get burnt 
And like the moth I never learn 

The fire of you threatening to consume me 
The light, blinding me, until I cannot see 
See the pain you cause me the pain I cause me 
Trying to reach the flame, reaching for what cannot be 

Am I condemned to be that moth forever? 
Can I from this curse be severed? 
Destructive attractive, forever calling my name 
I am your moth, you are my flame 


I see this as being unforgettable!!!!!!
I believe what makes anything unforgettable is love.
So to my loved ones , just in case you ever forget how much you truly matter to me I just want you to know in the words of good ole' Nat,"  Unforgettable whether near or far, Unforgettable in every way, and forever more that's how you'll stay." Hopefully you guys think I'm unforgettable too. 

Here's hoping I stick with you ...Caramel :)
