our teenage romance faltered
as new day began
until all that was left
were the remnant of a love
that could never have been.
Old now and much more wise

Remembering the smouldering kisses
before the fire went out.
Remembering the promises we made
that faded as the years went by.
Remembering the day
love out grew us
and went another way.

others are afraid of spiders,while others are afraid of snakesand some are afraid of mice.In each case we must face our fears,the things that frighten us the mostwhether they be living or deador in our imagination.The moment we stop being afraid,our fears will leave us alone.11October 2014
