Time Walking Some days, time seems to walk away from us and words meant to come never find their way. Purest of heart, am I holding my love for only one, who has pierced this soul leaving his mark. If only I could turn back time, erasing the wrongs in my life my torment would be laid to rest. I stand on the edge, wanting to abandon all I have, for happiness. Painting the rail that holds me back, I am glimpsing a fresh look. Listening to familiar tunes raising a memory or two, pushing back those feelings of hopelessness. Will this ever end? I want to go beyond the unspoken and share the unshared. But I fade away from chance and dwell in memories of that first touch, of strong hands, and of lips that burned when placed upon mine. At times, everything seems so distant never to be within my reach. A tear flows gently down one cheek. I allow it to dry, and then continue painting my way. ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". |

this poem is exquisite and this line: I stand on the edge, wanting to abandon all I have, for happiness. Painting the rail that holds me back, then the recapping of it in your closing...superb!!!   |

Read my signature and you'll understand how I feel. You've said this well. We are all in charge of our own destiny. Sometimes we find it easier to dwell in memories, rather than to create new ones. Thank you for this. Michael Michael Auguste~ |

You have a poetic paint brush and you use the colors of the rainbow. |

Wow, Wynter. Excellent work here. Very emotional walk you took us on. Yet the ground seemed so soft when we landed. All writing comes |

Very sad but so beautifully expressed! Those thoughts of loneliness are made into a poetic escape by the skill of your words! |
