Sailing Through Time

Sometimes We have to move on and leave the past behind Sometimes We lose enchantment of all that's beautiful and bright. Sometimes We have to sail away from those We dearly love leaving pebbled Shores fly over as a dove Forgetting the Yesterday and starting anew Searching for the Sun sinking our blue Saying goodbye be without you If days turn cold and grey If nights turn rough and wild I've gotta keep on waters and learn to make it through. Going to the attic finding that wooden chest lying in abandoment of cobwebbed nostalgia still holding to a verse a love letter never sent and many unsaid words Going to the moments when churning butterflies fluttered in my heart Moments when two flowers vowed not to be apart Moments when you looked into my eyes and believed in us to be Moments we lived for just a shadow of each other's destiny Moments when Our voices hushed and whispered with much love Moments when i searched the empty universe and you where the star above Wishing to turn back time to the only place you are whilst i remove my anchor i keep sailing very far This is not a poem and this is not romance this is a verse of heartbeats and hundred untold words. This is not passion its pain ending your name knowing through my journey nothing will be the same You are that special snapsot the portrait in my life the photograph still hanging which keeps the past alive. Charma always, Charma

Wonderful words as always ...written so beautifully ...I can only be in the Present right now and will try to remain there forever ... as the Past holds memories and the Future uncertain...only this Present has meaning for me tonight..luv.. Linda-Marie..

Wow ! A read I did not expect ! "What God has sown together, let no man tear apart" ! And the love was ment eternal, and forgiveness is devine ! And past your youth, into true womanhood, you shall relish the days in which you did forgive ! And still have your true love ! And all of the memorries ! And if you and your loves sinues are intact....God bless you Charmaine ! james

a picture is a thousand words, but they don't want o tell of the thousand emotions that they could bring too.
