Black Is Back

Faded photographs.
Missed opportunities.
Memories from the past.
Regrets overshadowing me.
Mistakes in my past
that didn't turn out right.
Once more I stop to pray
in hopes that they
will finally go away.
Wondering will I ever see the day
when these bad memories
finally fade to grey?

Hope that little bit of light beams through your black to give birth to gray.  Thank you for letting me see a piece of you...

Live today as if it's your last.  Love today as if it's your first.   Lisa

Ah, how well I know this feeling. And when it fades to grey, it only hurts a little, and the memories are sweeter

I wish my bad memories would fade away too.  Every day i wake up with 17 years of mistakes and bad memories, struggling just to move through the motions of a high school kid

Thank you Carolina, Dee, Sea, cottage, Tracey, Jeen, JT and Ginners for reading and responding...
It's sad when I find myself making some of the same mistakes over and over again...and relationships are really tough to work out when it seems like you are doing most of the work...James
