I hold close to me the flame we lit
As all those years passed apart
As the winds of life did blow
My love became like glass wrapped round it
And I carefully protected the sacred glow
Though we’ve set ourselves free to wander
I know that the light of our love
It was far too dear to squander
Lost in a world of shadowy darkness
I’ve lost my way, lost my senses
Been hollowed by the starkness
Still the light of what once was dances bright
Illuminating dreams and remembering
That such a beautiful prize is worth the fight
So do not begrudge me this old flame
With it I remember what it can be to fully love
Tenderly, peacefully, and passionately untamed...Sigh!

Dont make that face, one cannot be right always....
Love is never what we expect it to be like...and its hardly in the places we look either. Love is quite a strange thing!

@Keshi
and its hardly in the places we look either.***I agree...
that's the sheer beauty and misery of love... it can show u heaven and hell...
but in the end, when we walk away... all that matters is the feeling it leaves us with... some can't see beyond the pain and some (as the lines in the poem speak) take away the best from it...
and still see hope in togetherness against the odds...
*sigh*
@Ishita
I m also doing the same, but frm a different perspective...
Btw so far only u came pretty close to the objective i had behind the post, now i m waiting who hits the nail on the head...:D
Speaks volumes..beautiful poem'
from my own experiences..i have come to this...what has to last will last..and what is not meant to last.wont..there is only so much one can do....
i have had those feelings for someone...but now i feel it was pointless....coz he dint care ...
so why should should i care....memories leave us with unbearable pain sometimes...atleast it did to me...so chose to forget it all...and start life afresh.....
