Memories lie in dust and cedar, locked away in attic keeper. Bound in weather'd grain of leather, penned in ink on tip of feather. Paused, I stand at top of stair in thoughts of love and beauty fair. Dare I key this fastened lock; open up what heart doth block? Instead I drown these thoughts in rye Lest I find that memories lie... |

My poison's slightly different... but visiting memories can be tough. *S* Rum becomes an anesthetic To convictions of pathetic Searching for friends on the phone Don't want to spend this time alone. I enjoyed the read, Edder! *S* |

I really enjoyed the cadence and imagery in this poem--as well as the gist of it. I can still envision it all as I write this reply!  Warm hugs, EA |

This is lovely...love the depiction of inner turmoil--warring against the self between desire and safety. VERY nicely done! |
