About This Place

This abandoned place sits in silence yet the memories linger on, as they whisper of past innocent love that long ago was destroyed. Up and down and sideways we would sit for hours in such ease, sharing dreams from deep within as trust was forged with such strong promise. So many days of anticipation I remember as I return in my quest to face the pain, that has haunted me since I waited that day and my hopes of our future were surrendered. But it seems that I must relinquish that faith I held for so long, I desperately wish to hear your spirit speak to me about your abrupt disappearance. I still hear the laughter and feel the comfort of times I thought would never end, but all I hear now is that so soft squeak as our abiding friendship floats away upon the breeze. And as we shared our secrets enveloped within this world for two, I feel the tears roll slowly for the promise that never ensued. The threads of my life's tapestry began with parts of you and as it starts to unravel I search for answers from the past. Contest: SKAT's Epic 8/1/2015

Clouded by a negative past experience which is not worth prolonging. Well expressed emotions; glad to see that the final lines look to the future and not to the past; time to move on! hugs // paul
