Same Place

A memory of what once was
                          I sit here
             I see a young man and his dog
                    I need not wonder
                         For I know
      He has escaped from a place of fear and pain
                     A place I know well
               He is from the past I know
               He looks at me;Not possible
        He stops and begins to walk towards me
                          His dog follows
          Now in front of me;We know eachother
                  " Are you free" he asks
                    " Are you" I replied
            "In this place I am" he explained
         " Is that not why your here" he asked
           Think of my answer;he walks away
              Disappearing into the shadows
                    A spirit in my memory
                It was me in a place I loved
