Same Place

A memory of what once was I sit here I see a young man and his dog I need not wonder For I know He has escaped from a place of fear and pain A place I know well He is from the past I know He looks at me;Not possible He stops and begins to walk towards me His dog follows Now in front of me;We know eachother " Are you free" he asks " Are you" I replied "In this place I am" he explained " Is that not why your here" he asked Think of my answer;he walks away Disappearing into the shadows A spirit in my memory It was me in a place I loved
