Ever So Quietly

When the day breathes cool and the shadows lengthen

and a quietness left behind

fills my thoughts and dreams

 

I think of you

and remember…

 

There are no farewells

 

Love never leaves

It’s found in a heartbeat

that echoes with the joy of a memory

held within the soul for eternity

 

The light within my heart that’s still burning

 

ever so quietly

I don't have a favorite line cause it's hard to separate out one... they all reflect a truth about love that often eludes people.I think that's due mainly to that most never experience lovelike this Julie. It is very apparent that you have and in the places that matter most (memories)still do. You capture it well Julie. ~~redzone

I can't imagine my life without love..whether it is now or in memories..love is what makes it all worthwhile...don't you think? I adore your comments. Thank you :) Julie

I agree.
"Love never leaves
It’s found in a heartbeat
that echoes with the joy of a memory
held within the soul for eternity"
Thank you dear Poet for the outstanding poetry.

'There are no farewells' is 'the' line in this poem for me as it speaks of a refusal to accept love lost. Ever so quietly and ever so loudly I think.

You touched my heart with some powerful poetic words. So much emotions hovering over the oceans of your heart ... making us all feel the true feeling of being loved in the life because it`s a love which brings happiness so the misery as well .. but it still lived alive around the world ~~ in an every corner of the world ~~~ amid the pond of all the seductive hearts. Lovely .. very deep words you used this time.. I can feel the emotions of being alone through the piece .. wonderful write as always. Great job! ;)
