I sit in my spot,
Surrounded by a mesmerizing
Forest of flowers.
My forest.
The hint of jasmine and lavendar
Mix together, teasing my senses.
The sun peaks through the flowers and bushes, searching,
Hoping to find a way to shine wholly
In this magical wonderland.
My wonderland.
I lay back and close my eyes,
Enjoying the tranquility of the moment.
My moment.
Thoughts drift off to
A friend, a very dear friend.
Memories begin to seep back into my mind
As I look next to me
And see his hat laying there,
So lonely without its owner.
I reach over and touch it, gently
Letting my hand slide down,
Hoping my fingertips could absorb
Whatever memories that hat contains.
I pick it up, and let it settle on my head.
My hat.
A single tear drops from my eye,
Glistening in a prism of colors when a patch of
Sunlight breaks through to it.
My sorrow.
My pain.
Soon more tears follow, as I
Clutch at my heart, wishing that this unbearable pain
Would stop wrenching my already grieving soul.
The tears fall freely,
Tears of anger, sadness, despair...
But none of joy.
I remember,try to remember everything,
I want to remember it all.
So I sit by myself,
In my forest of flowers,
In my magical wonderland,
In my moment,
With my hat of memories,
Shedding my tears of pain and sorrow,
And remember what is what like
Not to be lonely...
Not to be so alone...
I stay there like that,
For the rest of eternity,
Reminiscing about that the past.
My reminisce. |
