I walked through the forest
to forget your memory
but it was your voice,
the whispers of every tree

I waited for the rain
to wash me away
to cleanse me of emotions
of my yesterday

the rain became a river
that lead me to you
and left my heart swirling
in pools of aqua blue

the pools became the ocean
I thought at last I would be free
but all along you were the tides
ever pulling me........

I WISH I HAD WROTE THIS!!!!

sometimes those whipers are to loud for rain and rivers to block the sound, ever pulling of the tides....yes understanding this

~~**~~
The sound of silence calls,
I hear your voice and suddenly
I'm falling, lost in a dream
The echo of our souls meet

I will be saying those last 9 words for days...they have molded in my heart and are now a part of me. What a wonderful piece!
