All in Time
© icyheart


They told me that in time
I would forget you.
That the memory of you
Would fade.
They told me that it only
Hurts for a little while.
That time would heal.
But no one could say
Just how long
it would take
with eyes closed
I can feel your breath
Taste your sweet lips.
The sensations caused
By your touch
The heat of your body’s
Closeness.
But with eyes wide open
I have nothing but
emptiness looking at me.
It will pass is
What I was told.
But now I am old
And still your, no
Our memories made
Still haunt me.
Everyday,
Every hour,
Every minute.
Maybe one day it
Will pass but
Can anyone one tell me…
When?

Oh Alan, that never ending question of when....  and I dont believe anyone can give us that answer, I believe that it comes to us when we are ready for it too...
Hugs to you, this was painful reading, but well done writing.

Oh Alan...I sure can relate to this...
I don't think anyone can tell us the when of it, if ever at all.
  *hugs* for you...

Alan, this really touched my heart. I could
feel the ache in it. When a person really
loves someone, it takes a long time to get over
the hurt, if ever.
Hugs,
Ethel

Sadly, time can't heal every hurt.
Good to read you again.

No one can tell you "when" my friend...Each heart does its own work in that field...

I'm sorry for the sadness in this one..

but enjoyed reading you

hugs, g

I believe the more you are open to loving and caring the longer it takes...but there will always come a time to prepare your heart for someone new...and that involves letting go and moving on...it involves a giving of yourself...in your time...James

sometime... in the future... your memories will cease to haunt you. That is "when". good luck on your journey.
