'Of Memories'

By SweetSadness86

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I stand still, though life has forsaken me Pondering the next step I might take I wonder where these roads will lead me If sorrow will ever be in my wake Naked, as the world would strip me bare Once more, my astral wanderings take me That sanctuary where my soul rests for now Inside your arms I find all that I should need. Love is like a memory I cannot lose A whisper that is haunting my silence A ghost of everything I could have been Telling me of what I'll never know Happiness is love with a better mask fleeting ever further from my grasp Miles between us... you who hold my heart In hands I see but in sweet memories Written January 24th, 2002 © on Jan 24 2002 07:17 AM PST   18 • 0 • 10
