there are times
when memory wanders
into aimless distances
when thoughts meander
far, far away

yet there are times
when all these thoughts
come back together
nearer than near
closer than close

oh! how memory blinds
and how she binds

ironic though is
how tears flow
down the cheeks
to drop
on the ground
and create a moist spot
that would in time
dry off

wonder if heart ache
can disappear too

and i miss you
while my thoughts don't
funny sometimes,
it seems to look in
from the window
outside

nearer than near
closer than close

first there
and then
here

Sudhir darling boy this speaks so clearly of a memory that needs to wrapped and kept away less it hurt the soul. Wonderful writing darling girl utterly utterly wonderful I love this utterly utterly utterly as always YOUR writing is simply perfect

Somewhere in time there waits a sigh
Waiting softly for its last goodbye
The heart that sits and watches silently
Wishes for a vision with some clarity
But while heart’s memory lingers on
There’s no chance of hearing love’s sweet song
The memory keeps you locked inside
And your heart seeks a place to hide
Open your soul let the memory fade
And you’ll walk in sunshine not in shade


Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the earthquake wind and fire

(sigh) Oh Sudhir, it is suprising how some things come and go but others seem to make cameo appearances after they go earlier! (big hugggssssss( It is a small world indeed, you speak of these patterns so well, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sudhir, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Very nicely written, I thought it had a beautiful feel, and a gentlness about it. Soft and shimmering.
