Away

 

  

Back then had you taken me away

What words might I have heard you say?

I love you, I want you, I need you?

As then and now would we feel?

 

 

I think of you often

And I feel your presence, feel your breath…

My heart still knows your touch.

Missing you is part of me now,

Do you even wonder how?

 

I could tell you, but I think you know

Souls can’t mate without permission

It’s not often fair, and not always known

Only with a silent song.

 

Take me away from here

So far away I don’t have to feel.

Take me away from here.

To that magic place where souls don’t mourn.

To a place where I am not.

 

Reviews

[Dean Kuch®]

This was such a poignant, soulful write. How often we wonder about the loves in our lives which have waded through the pools of our existence. Where are they now? Do thye ever think of, or even, remember us? No matter what one's current situatio in life may be, you hear a particular old song on the radio and you can't help but...wonder.
Beautifully done!

[Samuel Dickens]

I don't know if this is truth or fiction, but either way, I think I understand your wish to revisit the past, and just perhaps, have it take a different turn.

[Cree Nations]

Sam it is a true story. Back when I was in high school (lord so very many years ago.) He left and took much of my heart, the love between us is still with us, and we take a walk often down the path of "what might have been". thanks
