Memory Lane
You ever have one of those days...

The darkness is overwhelming
folding me within...

It was ten years ago when I moved away
not sure what I was looking for...

The full moon hovers high above
the darkness of the forest...

Walking along the sandy shore
salt water lapping at bare feet...

Sitting at the small kitchen table for two
sipping from a porcelain tea cup...

Yes, I remember the past
as it has molded me...

In the dark of night
the moon is my lantern...

tears stain hollow cheeks
lips sealed...

In the haunting darkness of the night
wrapped in a blanket of comfort...

Bare feet, ripped jeans
a colorful tye dye tee...

we drifted apart
what once was is no longer...
