Premium Member I don't leave all at once, but slip away like ink running off old pages
I don't leave all at once, but slip away like ink running off old pages, Like a song you swore you'd never forget, until you do. It starts small—your name becomes foreign on my lips, Your messages remain unread, not out of anger, but from a strange helplessness. You don't ask why, maybe you don't notice, or maybe you...

Premium Member The bittersweet days of our spring love slowly slip away
The bittersweet days of our spring love slowly slip away, Like a silver river winding under the night sky, They drift gently, like rose petals from a lost dream, And I immerse myself in the memory of nights when we burned with stars in our hearts, The sky spun in a hypnotic dance, we, two infinities lost in light...

When Did It All Slip Away
When did it all slip away, How did the world and life I Remembered simply go Astray? Friends that shared memories with me are now all gone , Leaving me here to sit and wonder why was I left to carry on. Carry on to what and why I do not know, And left me standing here a stranger In a...

I let it slip away. With every fleeting day, The countdown ticks, and the woodworm picks.   I let it slip away. We deplete into decay. A heartbreak needs a fix. Sticky roll pops claim extra licks. I let it slip away. Vowed to repay them that day. I value how you play your tricks. Yet, what kicks, it sticks! I let it slip away. Bear your wings and...

I let it slip away . . . a beautiful beautiful day. I’d looked out my window and seen blue sky and grass so green. Then back in bed I lay as I slept the morning away. At last I awoke but I had my chores! I felt so bad. Why in bed did I stay and not go outside just to play? By...

I let it slip away beyond my perceptive reach, like the dislodged grain of the memory sand. The dragging ebb of discontent carried it far into the dismal depth of somber sea of oblivion. The splendorous realm of my fervent heart twinkled with the tinsels of the argentine night, where your glamour gleamed with enticing tinge, suffused with the...

I let it slip away, that final day- with judging soon to come, it waited there. This prize I'd captured in my special way went flying instantly into the air. I'd held it in my heart for a long time- until my mind reworked it, as should be. My interaction led my soul to climb beyond the vision that had come to...

I let it slip away. Regretful till this day, I kept your love at bay and let it slip away. I had your undying love and true devotion, passionate romance in arduous motion. I was so careless with my own emotion …I let it slip away I pushed you away at each chance choosing an unassuming stance. Because of my adverse circumstance …I let it slip...

I let it slip away, That silver fish I caught, For life-freedom, it sought On that Summer Friday, I let it slip away, That lovely fish I caught, For it struggled distraught, Gazing in sad dismay, I let it slip away, That fleshy fish I caught, For with such strength it fought, I could not make...
