Michael J. Falotico Poet Rhyme

"passing Memories"

I drive by our old spots and a 
sad feeling pours down my chest..
Its a difficult time that covers over 
this soul that can't rest..
Another street another tear, I so 
much hate this feeling of fear..
Passing the train where we kissed 
and waved goodbye..
I can only swallow this lump and 
do my best not to cry..
Your smile and scent stay with me
on every turn I make..
The diner where we sat and held
hands and shared coffee and cake..
These memories are outlined around 
my heart..
A lasting love that is not done, just 
lost its start...

Poet Destroyer A June 25, 2010 at 3:11 PM sad, very deep emotions one can relate to, not all memories have the emptiness in feeling when it comes to certain places that remind us of a love that went no where, enjoyed,..p.d.
