Most of you write of love and dreams,
Your memories are still ahead.
Contented I, to speak of the past,
Where every love and dream has fled.

Pity me not, I knew a love,
Like your own, so fragile and so sweet.
I feel again the blissfulness,
When life was nourished and complete.

My mind has filtered out the pain,
Losing the chaff, leaving the joy
Of life when on its upward swing;
I that young girl, he that young boy.

Our future before us, all out-spread.
We'd walk it togther, hand in glove.
Until my heart's blood has drained away,
I'll keep that memory of pure, pure, love.

Yeah you've always got the memories hold on to them. lovely read tho.

Don't ever give in, if you do you've lost everything you've ever had and everything you hope to gain, but if you carry on your already winning.

The kindness of your heart teaches me with each response and poem of yours I read...I believe that you, too, still have more beautiful memories to make!
