Are you at peace, or where memories grow?

I've been witnessing your face in the steady glow, Where our feet once pranced, and affection used to flow Your flame just burned out, a sorrow fueled show, Are you at peace, or where memories grow? The torch I held flickered, casting a spectacular woe, Are you at the top of the world or down below? In my heart's dark corners, where lost recollections go, Oh, your flame just burned out, what pain this is to know While rehearsing the dance, it became suddenly so low

This is absolutely divine, love the feel of it, how it wrapped around me. Have u realized yet that to get comments, one has to give comments? Your poems, that I've read, deserve comments. I'm married to a Scorpio, know many, you are on the gentle side of that sun sign, must be some air/water/earth also chart dominant ... CayCay

It is a realization that I've come to I struggle with though... Finding truly meaningful words that aren't cookie cutter, or as I told somebody, once "click through in this, click through society". Makes me pause and truly think about what I want to write to the person that I'm commenting toward. I am always a good steward of my time. Or at least try to be... Seems like such a waste If I don't give someone my absolute best. Especially when they've spent the time to write something that I found the time to read. Moon in Aquarius ascendant in Scorpio. The scorpion holds 5 placements in my chart. It is my first house and my last. If I could only spend my time loving everyone that deserves to be loved, I would never live an unhappy moment. CayCay, your an exceptional gift to this world! With utter respect A.S.

In my infinite ponderings, how my mind goes wondering. About all things I thought I used to know. Run the candle does burn out. In darkness; we are left solo... A couple lines that did not make the cut. Thank you as always Paige for taking the time to encourage! Sincerely A.S.
