Everyone knows what it's like
wondering if what you have is really real
and traipsing along paths of the mind
that have seen hundreds of days
since their last visit
so many windows of opportunity
for memories to view and swallow
pulling them slowly through my reasoning
I feel so alive spinning through space
words spoken and denied
rose petals scattered
through halls of fatigue and hope
for this new beginning
doors open and windows close
breeze blows through and ruffles the curtains
I wander through this house
not my home
but all in all it feels the same
walking through a dream scape
i never thought it would be like this
not after last time
when everything was so shut down
what a contrast my heart is filled with light
with joy and peace, dont forget hope
I finally found where i belong
i just hope it never changes
this feeling this peace
please tell me it's not to good to be true..
Author notes
i have found myself enveloped in a relationship that is still fairly new and i cant help wondering if this love i fell is true.. i hope you find my mind i seem to have lost it in this piece.

I know this house! You have captured it so well, particularly the wandering through, the wondering, the hopefulness, and the uncertainty. This flows so well, with great images, and gives us "room" to imagine. Lovely!

this is really ambiguous and exactly what i was looking for
the sentiment seems to be hopeful and wary
