Sometimes

Sometimes
I no longer think about you
what we had together
love so true.

Sometimes
I hear those echoes growing fainter
the sound of your voice
and distant laughter.

Sometimes
I no longer reach out in slumber
for the feel of you in my arms
caresses so tender

Sometimes
I no longer remember your face
drowning in your eyes
as fingers trace

Sometimes
no longer do these memories remain
then only in these sometimes
does my heart feel no pain

The heart of you

There are times that the heart feels not what it should, and times where it feels what it shouldn't.

Welcome to Passions in Poetry, this was an excellent first post, and we look forward to seeing more of your work.

Thank you.

I hope the "sometimes" become 'all the time' and the pain and longing is forever banished from your body, mind and soul.

Welcome to this wonderful family of friends---kindred spirits who love to write poetry and read poetry! You're off to a great start!

Thank you everyone for your welcomes and nice words.
This is an old poem and I'm long over the time that inspired it.
I will post more soon, but only after having read and replied to others.
Happy posting is a pet dislike of mine.
Thanks again.
