Longing time.


Why wont your face fade?
My memory haze with the aging of minds?
For I’d give the world not to long for you
For that gentle embrace
And those kind words
In which I once believed.

Why wont the want die,
The anger not flair.

Why remember your smile
And forget your lies

This picture in my mind,
It sharpens all your best moments of lies
It forgets swiftly the pain
A dull ach inside.

Is it better this way?
To remember bliss.

When I thought I knew
All of you
Could I hate
Even a part of you
Even after you’ve helped me to try.

Loves flame never dies
But its burn does intensify
With the lonely passage
Of longing time.

"Death cannot stop true love, all it can do is delay it for a while" The Princess Bride
