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 Thu Jul 10, 2008 07:18 PM PDTA 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
