“Do your dreams remember Pasts?” Once a year, I count age on my fingers, My mind plays, Back the days, A slow count, must not linger; Mark the times, Thoughts reminds, Each year the count grows higher, One more year. Untrimmed nails ragged prone to grime gathers, These stiff wrinkled hands where quickness does flee, Not supple freckles but spotted leather, Each count an epicedium for me. Gloom |

Age is in the eyes...look at a really happy old person...look closely...their eyes are the eyes of a child.... |

Another year slipped on by, with memories still bringing tears celebrating all those lies, yet placed on forehead, a kiss this year. The morning after he came to me, forgotten too late, I have become. Some day I shall remain in mind and will be someone's number one. Hope it was a good day for you, ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". |

Thank you, Nakdthoughts, A wonderful poetic response. The day was like many others, Almost Unnoticed and insignificant. I’ve try to keep the tears limited to the count, But it, as you know, keeps growing larger. Gloom |
