A Poem by Elvis Gilley
"

It is the essence of memory that recalls the visions of our past.

"

It rains my tears

the tearful sorrows

echo my thoughts

 

Thoughts of hope

dashed against the rocks

of life's shore

 

With such violent force

I am shaken

for I am a thread of mankind

 

No arms

with which to hold you

I am restrained

 

My heart senses love

my arms seek love

my mind is racing fear

 

Can I hold you?

Touch you?

at least let me give you my love.
