Forgotten yesterdays, serve to frame
The picture of you, that drives me insane
For candlelight sparkles its ember,
deep in the night
as I bathe alone tonight, and remember,
forgotten yesterdays


I know you are there,
my heart and soul calls out for you
Screams inside with a horrific cry, and as I die,
I remember... forgotten yesterdays


Words written with compassion,
does very little to offer condolence
To a slow painful mourn
No matter how much they fashion,
your picture, is tattered and torn
Each night like tonight, another memory is born,
For I remember ...forgotten yesterdays


Oh how I wish you peace,
may you never feel this feeling
Alone as you too look at the embers,
of candle light, at night, this way
and remember...forgotten yesterdays


But somehow I feel you just may,
remember too
like I do in dismay
this picture of us, and our... forgotten yesterdays

Dennis, all these love poems must be
bringing a lot of memories
back to you. Good memories are a
nice thing to have, though.

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Dennis, I think when we believe we've really forgotten, we realize we can never truly fill our minds with amnesia as such this love is precious and tends to leave ever a faint afterglow! (sad sigh) Sad but very beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Dennis, thank you for sharing!



May love and light alwyas shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

"Oh, how I wish you peace" really is a sign of true love, in spite of whatever the circumstances are. I liked this very much. Quite touching.
