Image result for goosebump quotes

I have a cassette, a video recording of my mom and dad; on it are images and voices I cannot forget, it gives me goosebumps and makes me sad. You see my parents are laughing and talking, and each time I watch it I am left rocking; my reaction is great love and grief shocking, and I am in a cold sweat. They passed years ago, but to hear my mom's voice is delight; and to watch them alive is love and woe, I flutter before the sword plunges with might. Deep into my broken heart I feel the pain again, grief and joy falls over my flesh like rain; and I wilt from this sweet agony stain, where my love will always go. ______________________________ November 8, 2019 Poetry/Rhyme/Love and Woe Copyright Protected, ID 19-1194-957-02 All Rights Reserved.

Hello, thanks for visiting my poem and for the comment and beautiful, I don't think it is possible to separate the joy and the pain, we must accept both if we want to cherish the memory !
