Doubt lingers upon the journey of hope
clouding perception as it grips my throat
forcing me to look back to times
unprotected, unsheltered, unwanted
I disengage as my hurried thoughts jade
the presence before me
as I have danced with the devil
like a sleep walker in a numb state of
unawareness in order to protect
all I have left worth saving, my heart-
as it dares to dream against the odds
and in spite of the memories of days long ago
that feel much more close than the distant past

oh so true, the innocence lost...if only we could hold to that forever, beautiful
sounds like a person with whom I have danced with before...
memories don't come with time lapse expiration... unfortunately
Dark and beautiful, at the same time. Well done!!!
Thanks for your comments, you guys are the best!
