It happened long ago, though it seems like yesterday. Funny how the love can go, but the memories stay. I still recall the way you would walk into a room. Every eye would turn your way and watch your every move. Nobody else mattered then. You only had eyes for me. I never would have dreamed that it wasn't meant to be. Gentle kisses, words of love and nights of passion spent. Now I look at photographs and wonder where they went. I know that it's been years since you held me tight and there really is no reason for me to think of you tonight. I have a man who loves me and it would truly break his heart to know that I still think of you and wonder where you are. So he must never know. These feelings must never show. |

Hey Tennessee!!!!!!!! You wrote a beautiful and truthful poem! I think everyone has feelings like these, from time to time. There's really nothing wrong with them if you just keep them in your mind, as pleasant memories of beautiful past experiences...  copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |

I really enjoyed the nostalgic feeling this poem holds, though I truly cannot relate it to any feelings of my own or past acquaintances. Very well done. Michael |

Tennessee Angel, your write of past love with sweet tenderness and a sense of longing. It's such a natural thing, especially when it's of that first love. I think, if you confronted that past flame now, you'd see it just wasn't meant to be. I certainly have and it helps that flame die into an ember. Cheryl |
