The mists of time . The past, At last, It fades into mist, Helps me forget, Just why I exist, When I forget, What has happened before, I hear this load knocking, Upon the thick door, Like salesman appear, New suffering and fear, They stick in my mind, Like the sadness I hide, This trouble, I fear, No different than then, Back in the distance, The memories back when ....

Tom, it is your identification of that quick feeling of panic (or dread, or sorrow...you know?) that touched me in this piece. Well done  ~ Claire Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |

Thankyou very much all, I am glad you liked it . The word that your looking for meadowmuse is probably despair . It's one of those feelings that just makes you feel crazy . Then again there are good memories somewhere - i'm sure, Now where are they ... L.of.L. Tom . Don't try, do or do not, there is no try . - Master Yoda - |

So much haunting ache in this piece Tom...you have penned my soul well here. My hope is that when you opened those doors to the past that you let the sunshine in to warm the ache...Heart touching work~ |

Thankyou for the support and advise, as usual you lighten the mood well . L.of.L. Tom . Don't try, do or do not, there is no try . - Master Yoda - |

Thankyou Dark angel . Your continued support keeps me going. BDC - I think the plan with the sledge hammers is a great one . And I think that brute force is one of the few methods that I havent tried . Thanks alot . L.of.L. Tom . |

ah its true the past comes back to haunt you sometimes, love the way you penned it down There are enough colours in the world, To paint your own dreams, You won't get them, Till you try. |
