Memories Linger It’s been so long since you’ve been gone But I thought those memories Would linger on But I find I can’t remember your face There’s nothing left Not even a trace I saw your name and its memory Didn’t stir up Feeling of what might be I never believed I’d forget you But you’re gone And the memory too I thought at the time you’d broken me Its stupid I know But I felt tragedy The touch of your hand was thrilling My senses were alive And my heart was spinning Truthfully I thought I’d never be Released from a love That held onto me Trapped by your smile imprisoned here Alone and wretched I felt passion’s fear I’m relieved you’re back Honestly It’s shown me you Don’t still hold me The spell that you cast over me Has disappeared And I’m so happy To know that you can’t touch me Leaves me free to Enjoy my liberty I thought I would always know this The taste of treachery A betrayers kiss Emma Eternity, stands laughing at old time |

Emma, I am so proud of you, you have your mother's blood and your own style. I do like the way you've written this. Write on Lynne aka Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

I’m relieved you’re back Honestly It’s shown me you Don’t still hold me The spell that you cast over me Has disappeared And I’m so happy To know that you can’t touch me Leaves me free to Enjoy my liberty I thought I would always know this The taste of treachery A betrayers kiss Oh Emma doll, this was me last summer and I couldn't have ever written it so beautifully. I love the style hon. I watch my own daughter writing and I never want anyone to say, she writes just like you do, I want them to say, she writes with a style all her own. Your family is very talented, and each one with their own classy style. Well done!! I could have missed the pain, but I'd have had to miss the dance~~(Garth) |

You are truly your mother's daughter, Emma. I am very impressed. This is beautifully done... and I think that any man who tries to mess with your heart, will have his head bitten off.  ~ impressed hugsLyra |

Isn't that the way it works? When we go through it, it feels like an acid bath. But in time we heal, and that's good. I really like the way you express your feelings in the poem. Well done. Nan |
