Pulling Out Forgotten Images Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Pulling Out Forgotten Images



Life never addressing issues of what death does to our loves
in life, thoughts lie lifeless and numb refusing to be brought
to life again except through our aging memories.

Somehow scents, gestures, lights or shadows pull out forgotten
images of what we used to have when together, heart being wrench-
ed totally in two.

Bleeding tears of love and remembrance of we two once upon a
time when younger, hand in hand, loving and passionate about
our lives and futures as we boldly moved forward.

Love now being tested, gaining strength within each other's
beings, hearts and souls forever, although we never really
even think of tomorrow.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Daniel Brick 03 March 2017

This is the bittersweet essence of memories - it reminds us of loss which can bring sharp pains into consciousness, but it also keeps those people and events of the past alive and palpable to our spiritual awareness. The closing stanzas of your poem evoke beautiful times in your past with your spouse that deserve to be seen as treasures to be mentally cherished.
