Of Time and Of Love

Teddy.15

 

There’s a time machine inside you and I

a myth to those who cannot see it

yet to me a journey most definitely possible  

from two-thousand and twenty-four

right back to nineteen-ninety-two

in a blink of an eye

who could deny my magnificent mind?

or of that youthful love that once was?

withered with the rose petals of time

faded in-between life and death itself

thus drifting from a once young lover

falling into the frailest of hands

and then onto the wisest of hearts

that has many a tale to tell.

    Such a great idea seeing memory as a time machine. This may be more true than apparent. The movie "somewhere in time" brings this to mind. So beautifully stated by you in this wonderful piece.

      I've never seen that film, I am always honoured to read your reviews my dear sorenbarret, you are a magnificent source of inspiration to my work and I say with so much sincere gratitude thank you. Maybe I'm hoping the world can also be a time machine remembering that once we all loved and loved eachother a bit more than we do today. ❤️

      Beautiful write Teddy, and I'm with you on the world being a time machine remembering the love. A bright start to my day. 😉👍

        Oh this old world is getting me down dearest A.P we really have forgotten how to be kind and I hope we all get a throw back of what it could once again be. As for my scribbles thank you as always dear poetic friend of course I had to dig deep to bring my romantic muse out for the day she is berried very deep. 🤗 ❤️

          there is more significance here than immediately meets the eye .. I got stuck in the late 19 somethings and feel like I am lost or left behind ..

          a beautifully crafted poem nevatheless .. Neville
