Do you believe in love at first sight?

It's a concept that's often portrayed in movies and stories.

But maybe it's one of those things you have to experience

to truly understand what it is.


Let me tell you a story...

How is it

that you can always make me laugh?

I think I'm falling in love

with the ghost of you.

Whispers echo around the room,
the voices of crying hearts.

Crying for a change,
hoping for a new beginning,
begging for a chance,
for forgiveness.
For some reason, this confession I went to affected me in some way....I can't describe it.....I was things in a different way.

"Everyone needs something to believe in. Don't they?"

"Yes, I suppose that's true."

Dear priest, I hope you know that what you say
is what people want to believe in.

Desperately.

Flickering lights live in the shadows of the granite walls.

Extending on and on with infinite layers,

each with a story,

each with a tear,

each as a candle was lit with prayers from the soul.

Each with a hope that things will get better,

that things will heal.

That maybe, just maybe, their prayers, hopes, and dreams will be answered.
The smoke curls up into the heavens as it is extinguished to be lit again.

Everyone needs time to step back and take a look at their life

To try to understand the action of him/herself and those around them.
I'm not going to be posting any poems for a while, I just need a short break to try to sort everything out. :)
