Softened Heart

i see in ~velvet eyes~
although
not always clear
behind them
lies some truth
a warmth
a loving
share

if when the time does come
to leave
this place for hills
i'll settle back
routine myself
i promise
this
i will

i feel from ~velvet eyes~
from what i see
within
reflections once
of  happy times
a gathering
now thin

remembrance
of the moments
that in a lifetime
last
and added to that
always
yours
my now
becomes my past

it's time
each day i hear
as whispers swirl inside
producing
kiss thoughts
typed on you
these feelings
not denied

have fought this
for a while
good things
must sometimes end
as life moves on
or it retreats
i hang
i just
suspend

this story
has been told
a thousand times
been heard
a thousand letters
poems
prose
been written
read
in word

just names
although
they change
i'm you
you're sometimes me
and in this world
of lives unfurled
we're all
just
fantasy

a fine example of brievity yet full of

    I loved the flow of this poem and also
    the message......
       but the last line was perfection!!

Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
    'the Present'!

I like this
in this world
with life unfurled
we're all just fantasy.
De ja vu. Just perfect again.
Be well

Maureen, lovely poem, much meaning. Perfect flow.
