Phone Wire In Graves

Waiting for a phone call Hoarding memories surrounding A nest of sorrow She's deep asleep I watch her... She's dreaming dreams of happy times but gone... Busy walls with mounted smiles A mute TV screen displaying a tragic comedy Curtains shielding tears Three phone devices that do not ring... I must go back to my reality I cry, she cries... Our phones do not even sound busy... Invisible wires of the soul crash in memories... copyright@iolandascripca2013

It's good to see you posting again, Iolanda! Memories are indeed precious and they are a gift, I believe to give us hope; to remind us that there is a tomorrow...if we persevere. Happy New Year, my friend, filled with blessings and good will! Love, Annalise

Well, I can hear them there. The line is always busy. Very well put, the words you have wrote here.
