Lost Memories


As time steals away memory
How can I hold you in my heart
The distance between us
Ever widening, forever apart
Take me back to the beginning
To that moment of our start
When we first began our journey
Of warm words and gentle hearts
The path held much promise
Of a destiny unknown
Together we would find it
The happiness our own
Something precious to hold on to
A chance for love to grow
A time to make our memories
In Love's happy glow...
What happened to our story
Where did it go
Why your sudden change of heart
How will I ever know?
Now it all seems so distant
A fading memory from the past
Taken by the shadows of time
As I walk the path alone...

Thank you dear /t. for your kind words, yes this landscape is very pretty, I am not sure where this photo was taken, it could very well be western alberta.
Yes, I should expand my subject matter, I guess these sad poems are wearing thin with many of you.
Actually, I am struggling to write anything, perhaps its time for a break.

JUAN FUENTES said...

Amiga mia.Tu mente y tus sentimentos continuan añorando un pasado,pasado que solo te puede quedar añoraanzas,pero esas añoranzas no dejan tranquilizar a tu espíritu.
Un fuerte abrazo
Juan

Giga said...

Niestety prawdziwe jest powiedzenie, ze miłość nie trwa wiecznie. Zdjęcie do pięknego wiersza jest bardzo ładne. Pozdrawiam.
Unfortunately, it is true to say that love does not last forever. Picture a beautiful poem is very nice. Yours.

I thought she forgot where she parked her car.

dianne said...

Juan querido amigo gracias por tus palabras bien pensadas, es bueno recordar los momentos de felicidad, no estoy añorando el pasado, estoy tratando de entender lo que pasó.
Un fuerte abrazo

xoxoxo ♡

dianne said...

Gigadrogi przyjacielu dziękuję za przemyślane słowa, nie, miłość nie trwa wiecznie dla niektórych, nigdy jego miłość do mnie się zaczęło, ale brakuje mi go nadal, a jego przyjaźń.
ciepłe pozdrowienia

Giga dear friend thank you for your thoughtful words, no, love does not last forever for some, his love for me never began, yet I miss him still and his friendship.
Warm greetings

xoxoxo ♡

dianne said...

Thank you dear Pugsly my sweet for your humorous comment, gosh if she has forgotten where she parked her car I don't think she is going to find it there.

JUAN FUENTES said...

Amiga Dianne.Siempre cuándo se rompe
ese lugar tan inestable como és la felicidad,nos convertimos en acusadores,sin pensar que fuimos culpable de esa ruptura.
Si mis fantasias son capaces de alegrarte,éste viejo cascarrabia se siente bién satisfecho.

Un fuerte abrazo
Juan

Leovi said...

  Really lovely memories, but fades over time there are moments that become crisp and clean heart.
Besos.

Marty said...

hello Dianne ! beautiful poem !"the shadow of time" : love these !hope you enjoy life, we have only one !!!

Ellie Kings said...

With a slight difference, I'm sure you're aware these could be my own words. It's as if you read my mind. I feel your pain sweetie. And I hope you don't have to walk the road alone too long. But if you must, then know you're not alone. God walks with you! Hoping your heart heals very soon. Thanks again for all your comforting words on my blog. Love you sweetie! xoxo

dianne said...

Juan querido amigo, acabo de hacer preguntas para comprender por qué, nunca me acusan. sí, es mi culpa que no me amaba ... En sus ojos no era lo que quería.
Un fuerte abrazo

dianne said...

Thank you Marty dear friend for your thoughtful words ... yes, only one life, I am doing my best to get it right.
Bisous

xoxoxo ♡

dianne said...

Thank you Ellie dear friend for your beautiful words, I do hope my words and wishes for you were of some comfort as you have had so much sadness to endure.
I will be walking the road alone forever I feel, there was a small glimmer of hope there for a while, or so I let myself foolishly believe, but that warm glow seems to have gone, just as if the light was taken away and leaving behind a cold silence. Never mind, I have been alone for such a long time now, I am quite used to it.
Love you too sweetie!

xoxoxo ♡

dianne said...

Thank you dear friend Leovi , yes some memories do fade over time but some will always remain clear in our hearts.

diana said...

Very, very lovely, well written and definitely sad. This fellow you are mourning seems to make for a melancholy muse.

Leovi said...

The sweet joy of love ... Dianne very evocative poem. Kisses.

dianne said...

Juan querido amigo, su país es muy hermoso, siempre disfruto de las imágenes y fantasías.
Un fuerte abrazo

xoxoxo ♡

dianne said...

Thank you dear Diana for your thoughtful words. Yes, for many of my poems he is my muse. Sometimes we are very fortunate to have someone like him who is exceptional in every way come into our lives and when they leave for whatever reason it is an emotional jolt with far reaching sadness and mourning for their company and friendship.

xoxoxo ♡

dianne said...

Thank you dear Leovi for your kind words, the sweet joy of love is but a fading memory for me now. I have to write these poems so that I don't forget what I have lost, even before it had a chance to begin.
Besos

xoxoxo ♡

Leovi said...

The shadows of the past can shed the light of this. Kisses.
