I remember it clearly Though years have passed away Your love that I held dearly More than words can say Your eyes that reflected kindness And Your heart that was sincere Our days of carefree happiness That last throughout the years Though it was not our intention Eventually we drifted apart. Time made changes too many to mention Though you left an imprint in my heart Sometimes I wonder at night If the boy I once knew became a man Honoring all that's good and right Like before ready to make a stand Though I may never actually see If my perception proved true When I draw in my mind a pleasant memory What I see is..you I remember it clearly Though years have passed away Your love that I held dearly More than words can say |

I know I am going to be saying these words many years from now. This is so honest, so real and so moving. The emotion is clearly felt and your words relay it well. I relate to this on a personal level as I'm sure many can. Thank you for this one. -befriend yourself and you will never be alone- |

Yes.........memories can be comforting...you get to aquaint with so many people...do you sometimes wonder if they remember you in the same way? Nice Jon [This message has been edited by Jon Mewett (edited 10-17-2001).] |

I have thought these exact same thoughts for a certain someone, and I too will never find out how his life turned out. You write these thoughts so eloquently. Beautifully done If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please? |

I will never forget Billie Jean Smith my first real love...I cried a thousand tears when she moved away...and the world seemed so lost and empty without her around...James |

James Michael-- I know exactly what you mean! People call most first loves "puppy love" but they are always the most significant in people's lives..God bless and I hope your Billie Jean is doing well |

Ann, This put a melancholy smile on my face this morning-thankyou. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

A sweet memory that you can visit and relive the beauty it holds for you. He left a clear print on your heart that serves you up with gentle memories of the past. I love it. Reading this poem gave me a feeling of tender love. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

This is so lovely and can relate to many people who come and go throughout our lives...if we are fortunate enough we are reunited with them if even long enough to see that they are well and happy. Enjoyed. ~Nancy~ ~I've loved you forever, in lifetimes before.~ |

What would we do without fond memories...treasures of the past...  ~Victoria~ Every child is an artist. The challenge is to remain an artist once he grows up. |
