This is how I Want to remember us.

This is how I Want to remember us.
like the smell of the rain on the fall leaves
different from any other kind of rain.
and I still need it more.

This is how I Want to remember us.
the same way I remember being
completely lost in the dark
praying that I won't fall down

This is how I Want to remember us.
like the color white-and black maybe
but mostly the color of trees
and of storms that come slowly

This is how I Want to remember us.
like we are, is, was, were, will be
when we were so young-too young...
this is how I wished I could remmeber us.

This poem has a haunting quality about it and it lingers in the memory even after one reading.

Thank you Shaun. You are too good to me.

That's what the feeling is like before I put it into words...so thank you, Bahu Virupaksha.

I don't think I can ever be "too" good to anyone...unless they've done something to deserve my wrath, which I can assure you that you have not.

Well that's releiving...though I could speculate that I HAVE deserved it at some time or another lol. It's a scary thing to confront I am sure lol.

From me? Never.

You're right...you don't want to see it. Luckily I'm in control most of the time.
