I found a roll of film today Undeveloped I’m afraid The label says 1982 Seeing this, I am dismayed What photos lurk within Negative images here A time past, love lost Passions we held dear Do I want to see what My heart has as memory Will I again feel the pain Of love that used to be? I hold the film in my hand Then quietly toss it away Like the love I held in my heart Remnants of a happier day |

I found some old film once.. when I got it developed it was so old it came out fuzzy.. still haven't figured out who those people were.. hehe With perseverance even the snail reached the Ark. |

Good choice. No point in having to relive the pain that used to be. Wonderful writing. I could feel myself telling you to throw it away before I even got to the end. Great writing.  Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Thank you for your kind replies. I am a notorious film holder - can't seem to get it developed until long after the fact!  |

As curious as I am, I would have had the film developed. |

I couldn't help but smile... since I read this just after spending a fortune developing pictures... only to wish I'd kept the money and ditched the film. Curiosity costs! *S* Excellent write, PDV! |

Don't do it, leave that film alone. Nothing good's going to come of this, I can feel it. Onto part 2. |

 (big hugggssssssss) So sad and heartwrenching loss of hope, sweet friend! (sad sigh) I know these feelings so very well, for now I have lost all my boyhood and I have obfuscated negatives of my memories, all gloomy to me. (sad sigh) My heart goes out to you, and I pray from this day forward, you will have photo albums of your heart filled with such joy and happiness. (big hugggssssss) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
