I can't help thinking that you have fallen out of love with me.
Like a forgotten favorite shirt,
I'm a forgotten image,
Fading with the distance,
Fading withe the colors of over dried shirts.
When I left we said we'd try,
Now I'm gone,
I still try,
But messages remain unanswered.
My pictures probably found in boxes,
Stored away until thrown away.
Like a bad memory
I fade from you dreams,
From your life.
Like a dream my moment was short
Hard to recall
With the flash of day break
Forgotten.
A simple message spelled out twice
My dream of happiness
Happiness shared with you
Now gone like a run away
Never found.
The vision of children, a career
Now fade as the image of you
Embedded,breaks away
I would have altered my ideas,
There is no need now.
Farewell.
Take care.
Squeezed and love my teddy
I trustfully placed in your possession.
Well played.
I believed love could be just two simple entities.
You
and
Me.

Fading love, never caring for a thing in the world
The light is simmering, going to be put out soon
The heart is as sore
"And I'll survive."(A Trijan Refrain)
Oh slumber deep, dark slumber deep
that grips with silent stance;
hold me, touch me,
by Gayle Daskal
Love is like the wind as it blows past you
It can quickly come as fast as it goes
Hate is a common theme that goes and comes
