"open Doors"

Today I sat and had a stare...
Closed my eyes to drift in care...
Till I opened a small door on my heart...
And pulled out a memory that's not far apart...
It played out like a movie with no credits ran...
The air you could smell and the breeze as you stand...
Your fingers in mine as a lock would be secure...
To many ups and downs put us here, left with no cure...
So I tuck this memory away till you run through my mind again..
A library of days , missed words and what might have been...

Wonderful rhyme Michael, U played this one very well. A sweet little part when you took us into the drift of your heart. Somethings in life are hard to recover. When it comes to my x-I have no thoughts to store. I'm sad to think why someone here is being resentful. Michael! But, hopefully them memories will COME back around. And give U the joy you 2 once had. Forgivness will open the doors.lol, it never did opened mine back to love. but it is obvious your still in love. Enjoyed your poem...p.d.
