I left her tonight She dissolved in the disappearing tail-lights like her face in my mind, I relive the day’s moments and they turn to memories Alone again - empty again Memories turn into assassins They start to kill me I love her so much I miss her so much I feel her loneliness for me Alone I'm useless. I need her Pray let me survive this night Just till tomorrow will I love her And then I'll let her go But not tonight Sleep rescues me from the pain I love so much The morning will bring today Tomorrow I will let her go

So much of your heart pours out in this that I can only say "sorry you lost her".

I'll bet you don't. It took me over 20 years. Good Luck with that. Thanks Dick

This one really grabs you! Are there any among us who have not felt such pain. My "puppy loves" were the worst of all because every time I was rejected I felt the world had ended.

There is a tomorrow, though, and it need not be a repetition of the same old pains. Let go and let God.

This is so incredibly breath taking David!
Your words & passion of love give me chills
in a good way of course & also knowing exactly
what you mean by your most utterly..and also incredible phrase:
"Memories turn into assassins" !!! Holy Jowlza!!
Oh The Whole concept here is so very moving!!

I've been here too...........and I disagree with Regis...I think time does have a way of healing...there's a difference between healing and forgetting...remembering is a good thing when a lesson's learned! As always, you write with such emotion...you make your readers feel.

Tomorrow? You think so, David? I have not found it to be true that when it comes to love, "Time heals all wounds." A most compelling write. Thanks for sharing. I can relate. Love and peace to you,

Regis
