turning back the page

sometimes it can be a good thing.

flipping through photographs,
I find myself
turning back the pages
of my mind
to days just passed,
and ones long done.

memories merging,
converging;
you have become
a part of me
without my trying
to force you into
the corner pockets,
or laminate you
into my album,
or frame you
on my wall.

instead, you entered the picture quietly, as you are.

Author's Note

This is one of my favourite sappy songs of all time

Sometimes people come along and just ... You just know.
They're special somehow, even though the timing might be wrong.
But, like Bon Jovi said... Who says you can't go back?

[Lyn Anderson]

Yes. I just hope no one thinks this in any way refers to the EX. It doesn't.

[Matching Socks]

Hadn't crossed my mind, I think you've been pretty clear on your feelings for that one. :)

[Lyn Anderson]

Good. I would hope so.

some people just come quietly into our hearts...and they become a part of us without their trying or our trying...it is just meant to be.

Thank you for reading and reviewing, and yes, this is true.
