LET GO

entry picture

Photos tell a sunny

tale

Seldom are the 

dark moments

recorded

 

As I age I find comfort in that

 

Better to let ugly experiences

rest in bad dreams

For that is what they feel like...

not real

 

Such a gift that is for those

who know how to let go

of their nightmares

and cling to sweet memories.

Those last few lines. I've always felt that way. What a gift.

Love that response. Yes tears do tend to fall once the spot light is off of us. Hate that but so true

The sun sees us masked
Its the moon who sees us unveiled...
