When I think of you now
I tend to smile instead
Of frown and scold
Instead of acting old

I think of how
We used to be
In younger days
In more hopeful ways

Then the years seem
To fall away
As if they never
Happened…

Time throws a fuzzy blanket
Over the bad & bold
What’s left is what
I want to hold

If you are open to it
Love grows kinder with time
Memories become like
Photographs
Dim and fuzzy on the edges
But the connection is still alive

Love grows kinder with time…
What remains strengthens
Even when you’re gone
Without rhythm or rhyme
Love grows kinder with time
Forget the harsh words,
The betrayals and insecurities

Love grows kinder with time…
And I wish you well on your journey
My friend, as I’m sure
You wish me well on mine

Sometimes we do not realize
how much life makes us learn
until we grow.


I liked yours too poetcorner61

Love is always there

sometimes under the cover of deep despair

we can bring light into the dark

together again and never to part
