This Longing

Topic:
Nostalgic
|
I almost remember a time of great happiness:
it comes to me vividly
in lucid dreams of fantasy
with the whispers of nostalgia that
ache this thirsty heart.
I almost remember a time of great sorrow:
when feelings played tricks on me,
and I knew myself to be
the only one who knew the truth
of life and of dying.
I almost remember a time of great longing:
of unfulfilled dreamings and
inspired hopes to be somebody;
loved by a rare one who understood me,
loving he who did.
Today, still, I can be happy,
and sadness is no distant friend.
But mostly I long for those dusty memories,
already fading from this life-filled mind
I long to remember them.
With peace.

| "life-filled mind" = Great word choice there. That, and what everyone else has already said. Keep it up, Butterat Zool. |
