Since you left me, each slow passing moment Is haunted with memory--- And my heart is nigh to breaking For our dreams that couldn't be. So return to me, and just for a moment, Let us dream as we dreamed in the past--- And then...when the moment is over My heart shall break at last. |

Hardrock....Thanks very much, I appreciate your kind words. I'm happy you are enjoying the book. Thank you again. Best regards, Rex Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility. -William Wordsworth- |

As always a beautiful piece. Where can I get your book? Kethry Kethry. When dark of night steals your soul. Think of me and be made whole. |

Is haunted with memory--- Yes, we share this Rex. I too know the ghosts. Reminded by this, I think I'll post a poem I posted as a reply to a friend who was helping me through a rough time a while back. Thank you for that memory. (LOL, I was being sarcastic! ) |
