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...

    Hi Dianne, nicely written as always but do you think it may be time to challenge yourself to find a new topic?

    except for
    the photoshop girl
    the landscape could be western
    alberta -- just a few kms west from here

    your writing is nicely progressed, d, but i ditto cosmo, hope to see you expand on your subject matter

    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.

    but you learn from each trip and rises again and walks,
    finding new joys.

    ciepłe pozdrowienia

    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.

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

    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!

    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.
