Fragile Hearts

Well we all know that time rolls on
And weeping hearts grow old
While the opaque minds they wander
When southern nights grow cold

But the dreams of love they linger
In memories dulled but not forgotten
Left only now to reminisce the days
When fragile hearts did soften

So I look aloft, beyond the stars
And seek guidance from above
Hoping one day to remember
What it was like to love

"A spring shower was cause to run
Until you twirled me in the rain" ~ BDC

Such a melancholy write Eddie.
But oh how wonderful to read you once again.
~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul

"While the opaque minds they wander"


events in the past can carve
strong pathways in one's head
leaving lasting passages

Lovely write here!

always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same

This is so beautiful. Such powerful words.

Without the experiance of love where would we be? We would have no memories to cherish.
With love it brings hurt with hurt bittersweet memories.

And weeping hearts grow old

Yes... I can see me doing just that. *S* But some memories are so strong I think they'll survive as long as breath does... to remind me why I exist... why I breathe. *S*

Beautiful write!!
