I ache for the tenderness of your touch
at least for the touch painted by my recollection...
Isn't it strange how memories can create
the illusion of a masterpiece...
My soul longs for the simplicity of your understanding
My dreams, frozen in time, stand still with clouded visions
of the one I thought you were...
Life is a dream, a lyricists masterpiece
a painting upon god’s lifeless clay
a series of shattered realities...
To be understood
To be loved
To be cared for
Are these too much to ask...
Today overflows with tomorrow's seeds
Yesterday's teacher fulfilled our need...
She has taught our lessons, she has taught them well
Heaven is here, through visions of hell...
The fire of remembrance brightly burns
love's flame is heated blue
my heart is seeking another love
my heart is seeking another you...
Another love, for a broken past
another fling that will never last...
a painted memory which was born to die
a clouded dream in a war torn sky...
This is a first draft... open for revision. Then again, all of my writing is open for revision... lol!
ILLUSIONS ARE DANGEROUS FELLOWS...THEY HAVE NO FLAWS, AT ALL. BUT WE ALL HAVE THEM...THEY TAKE US OVER THE ROUGH WATERS AND THROUGH THE DARK NIGHTS...WHILE WE WAIT...FOR REALITY. DONE WELL AND ENJOYED. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE, BLESSINGS & FAITH...JOYCE*HIS INSPIRATIONS

I thank you, Lori, for writing something I could so perfectly relate to. It does seem strange how memories erase the negative when caught up in a moment of longing...
I deal with that issue so regularly, its comforting that I'm not alone in this!

What a beautiful word dance! You take the moment, add the word, mix in the mournful, bewitching sounds of truth and reality and you have created a "Memories Masterpiece". You are truly a lady for not giving my secret away. You be cool! Thank you! I needed another avenue in which to vent. Skeeter says good morning too. Monty.
