Barely there...

barely there...
soft whispered words in the night
rarely heard anymore
barely there...
a touch, gentle, soft
hardly felt
anymore
barely there...
a whiff of perfume
down a long dark hall
gone
so quickly gone
i'm barely there...
a fleeting memory
just a thought
that hardly ever
crosses your mind...

Sad and bittersweet when love does not die but more or less fades away and when we finally realize it the ache of what was and what cannot be again is unbearable. I know this feeling of which you speak all too well Sue.

This one really hit me Sue - barely there is how I am feeling - The little flower ceases to bloom - Perhaps there will be flowers in Heaven

You have been missed. This was so melancholy and sorta sad. Well done piece that appeals to us all, because we all have those fleeting memories.

A splendid take on what may have been but is all but lost in the memory of it.
