I sift through memories That mean so much The way you held me Your wild and gentle touch The music your smile Your eyes like mine Our desires The forgotten wine The memories flash Like lightning above My heart betrayed me And fell in love You took those memories Back home with you You bring them out When you’re feeling blue I wish that I were there To hold you tight Kiss your brow When you awaken at night So until we are together Instead of far from you Just hold me tight in dreams The memories will have to do. ©1999~CJB~ ~My Skipper Jim I love you! Your Lady June~ |

A very lovely poem. "So until we are together Instead of far from you Just hold me tight in dreams The memories will have to do" I know just how you feel here. Great piece. A Dream is a Wish the Heart Makes... |

Being apart from the one you love is possibly the worst feeling in the world. Excellent poem, keep the memories close. I hope you are reunited soon |

MagnoliaBlue, I read it again and this verse is so true. The memories flash Like lightning above My heart betrayed me And fell in love The heart is more powerful than the brain, and does things that sometimes we do not want. Keep writing, and I will definately keep reading. |

MB, I hope you get your wish. This was beautiful writing. So full of memories. They should be cherished always. Hold them dear to your heart. LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

Thank you Bill, the heart is indeed more powerful than the brain...My heart fell in love with him, and then the rest of me did too!  Wonderful to know that he returns those feelings! Thank you Martini, I appreciate you reading and commenting. Thank you for your comments, LW. I authorized you on icq and then I had a crash LOL...stop by anytime you want to talk!
