You

You

A Poem by Alisa Js

I feel you here

and without a doubt
the flame from the edges of cinder
could not be.
in the wind
the laughter derides
mocking the memory
I knew to be true
why must we never
when others, always
it's more than a suggestion of cruel
harder to swallow
and yet, I choose to believe
there was magic
around the songs we sang
the love we shared
promises that bled into
impressions of affection we knew...

-- ahhh... i can feel the sentiments expressed in this piece... -- i dunno if we "choose to believe/there was magic"... or if there really was more than a hint of magic... -- when i look back at some scenes in my journey, i feel there was true magic though it later disappeared... and so i feel that this beautiful heartsong of yours... poignantly narrates the story of true magic... -- and i really, really like the expression "impressions of affection"... -- whenever i read your poetry, i notice some phrase which uniquely describes a feeling or an experience or an image that almost anyone can relate to...
