I have your picture, framed and hanging on the wall.
You seem happy in this picture, it’s right before things got hard for you.
I take your picture off the wall and bring it into bed with me, it feels like you’re here that way.
Sometimes I talk to you through the glass frame and touch your photographed face.
I love you, please come back to me.

"I wanted you forever.
Just you, and me in the breeze.
never thinking time had a say,
bringing our future to an end.
I'll never begin to understand
how life passes us by,
it leaves us only to try.
Teaching to say goodbye.
We're given joy, and happiness
through our years, memories now of the past
Praying for just a wish, bring it back forever.
Another chance to have me in your eyes.
Another chance to hold you when you cried.
To take away the vision when you in my arms
as you died.
It was terrible when i had to say goodbye.
Wanting back all the great times we had.
All that last forever, and not those of
sad.
I only pray that you can now hear me say, how
fortunate i was that you came my way."

"I held your hand for 39 years, because
i felt the heat of your Heart.
Only a fool would let go."

" I've been abused, mishandled and
Confused.
NOW I return to me, backed to
person who I used to be.
She took me away, Because of her
beauty, and her age.
The elder in me was like a Tiger being
Let out of a Gage.
It had nothing to do with lust.
I'm a man of God . He appointed me
to life up her life. A matter of must.
The months went by very quickly.
I was doing as much as I can, but
Feeling unappreciated wasn't in my
Plan.
My silver hair was dyed brown, to
Look as young as I can.
Finding myself in shopping malls,
NOW never even holding my hand.
This went on for month's.
Dinner's, and lunches was not enough.
Now on her menu, she added brunch.
There's a lot more to be said, but I think
you all got  my point.
Maybe I should have stayed in the
Gage.
A man of my age."

" You look at your watch when searching
for the time.
Go to a window, see if the weather is fine.
A book seems to find your hands.
You open it, hoping the first chapter is far
from being bland.
Always something to do.
Always somewhere to go.
Is there ever a time we stay still?
Even in our dreams, we rush for things.
The wheels just keep on turning, with
Gravity stopping us from floating in air.
On the go, on the go.
Trains, buses, cars, and planes.
Look how we grow.
This will never stop. It"s simply Human Nature.
So sad for the one's that get left behind.
All they become is a name and an address on a sheet
of paper."
