Aks ha!

A door opens to the missing in the darkness;
a past vanished without a trace,

A small bag packed with broken memories, 


Reach in her with misty eyes with only the memories and photographs,

Reach back to fill an empty place only vagueness now holds,

Like a broken clock, not random, but driven by fading memories,

Reach back to hold memories and photographs to the light,

 

Watering them with tears to bring them back to life, 

Fervent cries but fading more,
is there anyone there? Is that I? Is that she?


But the only sounds of over breath toward a fading memory,
For a long time its deafening sound,
subdued by a path of virtue,

 

Through lost and found, but still fading.   Laughter and sorrow like - churning,
anguish and grief, but still fading,
all the moments of a life summed, completed in a snap of a photograph,
To hold for relief in moments to ratify the emptiness.  

 

Everything and nothing for all, no matter still fading 
one within and between all, no matter still fading
gentle, loving, pervading, no matter still fading
the eternal silence falls upon the moment, the complete faded photograph . . .

If only for a moment

by Nadias on

A memory to hold

If only for awhile

Is  precious and unique

As we do look back

 

                               If only for a moment

 

A memory to cherish

 Found in old photographs

Is very rare indeed

Just to  see them once again

 

                                        If only for a moment

 

We close our eyes

Remember yester year

We can almost smell their scents

Almost see them smile

 

                                    If only for a moment

 

As our memories do slowly fade

Of those who've gone before us

Our minds do tend to play with us

As our loss, does pain us so

 

                                        If only for a moment

 

Always  searching

Within our bag of broken dreams

To remember all that was and could have been

Had life not been so cruel

 

                                             If only for a moment

 

Yet hope and love

In other ones

We do find solace

We do find joy

 

                                    If only for a moment

 

Adding to our memories

Adding to our life

Such warm embrace

Does wait for us

 

                                    If only for a moment

 

Will you not consider

Letting in love's embrace?

Life's new joys

Awaiting you

 

                                  If only for a moment

 

So many memories wait

To be made true

So many sights and scents

Do wait for you

 

                                           If only for a moment

 

Don't walk but run towards them

Where is she now?

Where could she be?

This light that shines, at the opening of that door

 

                                              If only for a moment

She waits for you

But the door could shut at anytime

Do not let opportunity pass you

By looking back too long

                                    

                                     It is only for a moment
