The Map

Neville

The Map

 

There was once

a time golden,

when it all came

together

and I would spell

your name

backwards quite

simply ..

Because it made

It all seem

magic or special ..

And anyhow,

it was always so

very much

easier to find my

way home

when I wrote it

that way ..

Yes, there was

once a time golden,

when it all came

together ..

When we lived on

small talk,

free love and so

very much

laughter we often

ached all day ..

Back when we both

thought we

might last forever ..

But of course,

we never did, did we ..

    Mmmm 😔 but the memories remain? Remember, I'm that glass half full kind of a person, so as sad as this is....I'm CHOOSING to look at it as..."at least I loved" kind of way? So....Can't you still use those memories as a map? Just thinking out loud!! 💜

      It's what I do too LIZ .. but sometimes the pen just seems to take over 💜

            Such a shame those times never lasted Neville, I do hope they do one day.

                    'When we lived on
                    small talk,
                    free love and so
                    very much
                    laughter we often
                    ached all day ..'
                    but that six-pack laughter legacy
                    of those good times you shared
                    remains, beneath life's fat debris
                    should chance ever afford you
                    a reason, to do a few sit-ups
                    in anticipation of love, revisiting
                    again...
                    I am such a a spoilt fan, dear Poet supreme
                    Thank you! Hyung
                    (Hope you and yours have a peaceful week) 🍻
