I Thought Of You Today... I thought of you today as the tears and strain that have racked my body eased a bit. Soaking in the warmth, and shine of the sun, after days of torment I sat on concrete steps, uncomfortable, but solid. I saw your eyes smile at me. I felt them watching every little movement I made, the twitching I have at the corners of my mouth, now wanting lips to touch and heal them back to softness. I thought of you today My eyes closed but seeing clearly sparked a memory of touch, of passionate words that will always remain with me especially in times of need. Your pale skin, your gentle looks your almost smiles. I can do nothing but think of you this way today. I let the breeze play in my hair leaned back against the rail (for some needed support) felt your fingers tangling there. A come-on whisper touched my ear I thought of you in this way here. I thought of you with opened eyes in bluest blue of cloudless skies then one began to float in view and dreamt I, then of only you. I thought of you today no tears in eyes I'll smile again contented moment of times back then. especially when I thought of you today...

Even at the saddest times, its funny how those memories of ones we've loved come back to haunt us. Lovely poem ![]() "Life is like music; it must be composed by ear, feeling, and instinct, not by rule."~ Samuel Butler ~ |

Memories hold dear to the times of love's innocense. They often are the reason we seek that level again disregarding the pain that so many times before has rocked us back lovely write....your pen serves you well. |

"the twitching I have at the corners of my mouth, now wanting lips to touch and heal them back to softnes" You write so beautifully, and these lines are wondrous to me. A sad theme written in exquisite phrase I loved this one Liz |
