"Reminisce"
I wished last night I could escape
Into the years before,
Without the pain of loss and want
That brought me where I am.
To go beyond the yesterdays,
That curse my memories,
To go before the vigils of
The ones I loved occurred.
To reminisce of normal times,
Without the days of grief,
A luxury afforded not
Where sanity prevails.
I wished last night I could escape
Into the years before,
A childish thought, to hope so high,
For what I cannot have.
That curse my memories,
To go before the vigils of
The ones I loved occurred.
To reminisce of normal times,
Without the days of grief,
A luxury afforded not
Where sanity prevails.
I wished last night I could escape
Into the years before,
A childish thought, to hope so high,
For what I cannot have.

Your writing as well as your pictures are absolutely striking! I am glad you left me a comment because now I will add you to my friends:) JP took the pictures of us on the beach. Thank you for your compliments. I think he does a pretty good job but I am biased.:)
