Time Was Time was when you were the one I loved Time was when you were today and tomorrow Time was when we had only just begun, together just the two of us- we took our living as it came without sleepless nights and fuss… Time was when we were in love, my heart in you hands: our souls enclosed in our embraces Time was when we would daydream just what type of people we would be: our thoughts were dreams because we were in love Time was when I couldn’t last a day without you and the madness of the world were promises we couldn’t hear each day, each night, was our time so dear… Can’t I dream, and adore you, though we are so far apart? Or is 'time was' just my illusion living alone in my heart where time was… . [This message has been edited by JL (08-26-2007 08:11 AM).] |

"the madness of the world were promises we couldn’t hear" Whatever makes that happen is to be treasured. Loved this, JL! "Time was" is merely a foundation for time will be and "keep the faith" can apply to so many things. |

"Can’t I dream, and adore you, though we are so far apart?" ~ but of course! lol May the time that was, become your time that is and will be again. Wistful, yet very sweet write. "Somewhere In Time" ~ EA |

Your "Time was" speaks very eloquently of those moments when time actually is not perceived, when we truly live we are unaware of the passing of time. Believe me, even in distance, we can share quality "time". Very intense write! Love, Margherita |

In our minds we want the object of our affection to be in our face, but love requires no such bounderies...James |

Can’t I dream, and adore you, though we are so far apart? Or is 'time was' just my illusion living alone in my heart where time was… Such poignant questions. Beautiful write. A |

Can’t I dream, and adore you, though we are so far apart? Or is 'time was' just my illusion living alone in my heart where time was… very sad....the way things were at one time, to be changed now....go give your love to someone and care deeply, to now have times change.... sometimes life is cruel...JL, and I'm sendin a hug your way....

"Can’t I dream, and adore you, though we are so far apart?" There are always dreams... perhaps an only remaining recluse... but they can't take that away... unless you give it away. MoonShadow . |
