I don't remember how you looked.

Old memories dance in my head.

~oh how life isn't fair in reality... but we make it better in positivity..
this is really beautiful... full of longing to the person who went away.. old memories help us remember the happy times though we can never went back and re experience the event... the least we could do is cherish the moments in our heart..
Beautiful work my friend.

what a really enjoyable poem, best stanza but I want to say unspoken istead of spoken, anyway wonderful read :
I lost you on a cold Spring day.

I became old as you walked away

with tears and too many words spoken.

"i became old as you walked away" sometimes a single line from a poem as excellent as this stands out like a white tie at a black tie event. this is amazing and touching to the very heart and soul. you are one of the most honest and realistic writers i have ever encountered....i truly hope you will autograph a first edition of your collected works for me someday. it would be an honor!

your words are captivating in their poetic beauty, that exquisitely capture
the memories of love that haunts, lingers within someone's soul

I lost you on a cold Spring day.
I became old as you walked away
with tears and too many words spoken.

I released you for my hunger was to have you forever.
You were seeking a place to rest and get strong again.
Your wish to be free. Was more powerful than mine to
in prison an angel.

...achingly beautiful in it's poignancy. thanks for sharing, pen on :)

February 17, 1996
ATMORE, ALA. — A man was executed in the electric chair early Friday for helping to abduct, sexually assault and slash a 16-year-old girl to death after escaping from a prison camp. Edward Dean Horsley smiled and mouthed ''I love you'' to three friends and his lawyer just before being strapped into the chair at Holman Prison. In his final statement, he said he had no animosity toward anyone and thanked the guards for being kind to him during his 19 years on death row. Horsley, 38, was executed for the 1977 murder of Naomi Rolon of Hudson, N.C.


This was a girl who liked me in high school and I liked her...she was really sweet. He spent 19 years on death row but she only had 16 years on the face of the earth because of him and his fellow escapee. They kidnapped, raped and butchered her. Stuffed her in the trunk of her own car for 3 days with no food or fresh air...not place to use the toilet...ran over her with her car...stabbed her...and then hacked her to death with a hatchet...so I know about remorse and regret and I remember a sweet, loving, gentle girl whom I never told I loved. I wasn't even sure what love was. But their deaths could not bring her back. They were not even worthy to speak her name.

I'm sorry for your lost. Losing someone to murder is different. Losing someone to wrong place and time is norm for the most of us. I lost many people in my life. Suicide of two brother's left me empty for many years. You told a sad story. Some people cannot be forgotten.
