Old memories hover
around me today
weighted with sorrow
and just like the rain
they seem to be here for awhile

I shift and attempt to find comfort
and finally try to adjust to a quiet acceptance
of these shadows
these tears
sliding down each memory painted
blending them together
until they're a jumbled memory of
emotions

I try to remind myself I'm so thankful for
yesterday
for those memories
for that love

Sweet Sorrow

Life is hard.

To capture and live a moment is truly living

Rainy days do seem to encourage our memories to come out and keep us company... and you know you had it good when you welcome them, in spite of the inevitable pain. *S* I liked this!

I think that it's kind of telling that for a lot of people. . . it was gray and rainy today. . .

Excellent expression of such heartfelt emotions...I enjoyed this! Great write.

everytime I close my eyes, I see your face, I taste you on my lips...
every night I fantasize that I can feel you on my fingertips...

Do you recall
that wretched quote
yes he calling on
himself to describe

"Rain is the fluid
of introspection"
Meeting past and places
still singing insight mirror I

Nothing has changed
quite obviously it cannot
One and one still make one
in denying or acceptance

It is real in its very
presence still the world
still a heart never
has become forever

"Time is merely change. It neither enslaves nor determines us. It is instead our opportunity for self-definition"
