Immersed in documentaries I live on borrowed memories encased within a time gone by the memories that will not die. Read again old journals sadly how fast happy days went madly Such love and joy can not be gone how could my life have gone so wrong? Photographs standing for a life Nothing but papers cut with knife yet memories will not let go I hang on in the hope to know. Till then I borrow all my love it is the stuff that life's made of. |

(big hugggssssss) This is sooooo sadly beautiful, sweet friend, I know with all my heart you have many photo albums of joy and happy memories ahead of you and you will find all your heart desires with the afterglow of your treasured memories! (kiss on cheek) My heart goes out to you, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sandra, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

CatalinaMoon~ I knew by the lovely title it would be touching ... it is~ 'encased within a time gone by the memories that will not die.' And the memories live on to serve us a slice of our hearts on another day~ Lovely~ ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Till then I borrow all my love it is the stuff that life's made of. And ya know what, Sandra...borrowed love is a lot safer!! LMAO Thanks for your concern, recently...I'm fine. Just this ERFKAD's been giving me grief. She wants to be the race car and I think she should be the shoe. It's always something, ya know? |

Memories are a powerful thing that have a way of keeping a hold on our heart. I like to think the best is yet to come even if it's already gone! *shrug* hugs Sandra~ |

Makes my heart ache, this one does. Well done sweet poetess. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

well done. . . but, does life go sadly?? or, do we just see it that way?? -------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |

I read this poem and thought "Such a pretty, sad girl." Then I saw the picture and that confirmed it. Take care. |

Dear Sandra, another sad one, you should not be blue, but treat yourself to happiness and time out. Enjoyed the read. Sincerely Rick Love is stuff that gets us through Our hope, our dreams and song Love it seems to mean so much Our joy and what we long But life is our experience Our tutor of each day And sorrow’s there to test us all When all our clouds turn grey Our past becomes our memories Our future, time of hope For somehow love to find us And through it all to cope |
