Looking back through tunnels of love and despair Questioning why such turmoil is always there Seems yesterdays kiss left a mark on my soul Long past it continues with remnants of cold Can it please be relived, those days filled with hope? If not, tell me what is the best way to cope. Feel blueness reach out, clutching hard at my heart From where comes the strength to make honest new start? I would be the first one to step back in time A time when the planets were rightly aligned when men wanted love on a rose strewn warm beach and asked for your hand, really wanting to keep. Not the same anymore, the love game we play Or is it just fate which has turned me away? Will time lend itself to be true friend or foe? Or shall it continue to hide what I know? Rumor has it there is an answer to this Thus I wait forever, for one final kiss. |

I think we have all experienced these questions and thoughts at some point. You have captured them in beautiful words. Great read, ~Krista "Poetry and Hums aren't things which you get, they're things which get you.

Ahh, Sandra, we cope by using the experiences of the last to go to the next, seeking the difference of what didn't work before. All too often we end up with the same ticket to the same show..live large, love large...gentle smile |

Lovely catalinamoon...I know that it is hard to believe in love until we experience it and feel its warmth...and hopefully none of us will have to look too far back into our past to know love...it will come knocking on our door with fresh kisses and new fantastic experiences...James |

Sandra, I am the furthest thing from "religious", but this one prayer has inspired me for years and says so much in so few words: "God grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the Courage to change the things I can, and the Wisdom to know the difference." Contemplating the true meaning within this prayer has helped me out immensely when trying to fathom the "unfathomable". Wonderfully written poem, Sandra. -MVS "If you think you know it all, you have a lot to learn." |

Sandra; This is a masterpiece. It's been awhile since I have read your writings ("Phreak" is an alias  ), but like always, your words have managed to pierce my heart.Beautiful poem ~phreak "I woke you up and I slit the throat of your confidence, and we laughed in the night and I felt alright" (3EB) |

you know that I've always wondered if we could go back. . . but the truth is. . . we can't. . .we can only go forward. . . and, in going forward, we hopefully take with us the lessons that we learned back there. . . wonderful my friend. . . never give up. . . ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |

I for one, don't believe chivalry is dead! There are some real gentlemen in this world, I know a few! And a lot of romantics also... |
