These Memories...

Missing image




constant reminders everywhere of
times we shared only yesterday and
yet sometimes seem like years ago


today my world is in disarray but
tomorrow you'll smile and take my
hand like everything is fine


I'll hold yours and return the gentle
pressure because that's what I always
do...too afraid of losing you


I remember the good times so it's not
hard to go through the bad with you if
that's what I have to do to make you stay

    nice

    seems like a personal write with a nice message at the end.The tender threads of a relationship do strengthen when strained sometimes.
    Touching honest write

    Again, this is deep and shows a certain 'sadness' within the words here. I like your work. I am attracted to it.

    Keep up the good work.
    Love

    I love this poem. a lot. a whole lot. I understand and can relate to the last stanza

    "I remember the good times so it's not
    hard to go through the bad with you if
    that's what I have to do to make you stay"

    It's like you're realizing you love this person and love subsists everything, even those bad times. Great peom, and I'm really happy that you decided to use two options. Thanks for entering, and good luck!

    Beautiful poem and an amazing picture. Loved this part:


    today my world is in disarray but
    tomorrow you'll smile and take my
    hand like everything is fine
