Echo’s Memory In my heart there’s an echo of you resounding still Remaining in me with memories of wonder to refill Quietly sitting within my sanctum that no one goes I rarely visit for the pain there still aches and flows Do you still have an echo of me sighing within you? Can you still summon up the touch of me as I still do? On some nights when I look as if I haven’t any care I’ll stop and in a brief moment I will feel you there I don’t now catch my breath when I hear your name But my heart hears it echoing within me just the same And when I seem to pause in doing any little thing I can still hear you sighing that song you loved to sing When you dream do you ache in the tormented night Or don’t you feel the need for dreams desired sight? I say when asked that I don’t even recall your touch But you know I'm lying, that I still want you so much In my mind I remember too much the touch of you Still hear the echo’s of my heart swearing it’s true Sometimes and it’s more often than I care to admit I want so much to return to you and at your feet sit I have to school myself not to give in to this desire Remember that you won’t be taking me again higher There’s no going back but the echoes continue in me And I’ll carry it always a very cherished hearts memory Marsha |

MarshaLove~ You're trespassing on my heart !  'Do you still have an echo of me sighing within you? Can you still summon up the touch of me as I still do?' Beautiful, sweet sister of my heart. *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Oh Marsha, this expression of the heart is something I can identify with so much right now. This was eloquent in it's beauty, and so touching. Hugs. On the wings of words our spirits fly....and our souls are free. |
