Dedicated to Nanette . . .

I awake early and
I have nothing to say
but your name.
I awake early and
I have nothing to remember
but your face.
I am the wild beast, who,
after being befriended,
turns to bite the hand
so gentle and understanding.
I awake early and
I have nothing to scream
but your name.

Much longing and much heartache in these words, Jerry.

All wounds heal, but few are forgotten.

These wounds will never heal, Bluesy. They are not as intense as they were once, but they are still here. Thanks for the comment.

Great piece Jerry. Passionate and longing.

I, like you, remember them all, by name, by throbs of my heart; each bringing cries of angst to my lips.

I've found, age magnifies, my friend, and assures we remember, often, what we wish would stay in the past.

Yeah, J, you have said what needed to be said. When we love, we love deeply and passionately. That said, we oft too many time have other things on our minds and are easily influenced by another skirt or a longing to travel. Sad, that in our olden years we recant and it is hell to pay sometimes. Thanks for stopping by.
