    Thanks Jax. I'm glad you are back. Our timing seems to be crappy though as I am once again needing a break from here.

reply by Jacqueline M Franklin on 29-Sep-2017
    I understand.
    Not sure how full-time I'll be...easy does it.
    Take care ... (*<*)

Hello, Tab,

I'm so sorry about that feeling. I hope you will be okay and the nightmares stop. Sometimes do you feel alone, even here? I do. I know I'm on the outside, as usual, I never belonged. But I am an enigma and so are you!

Be strong! It does get better.

Nome

Breaking up is hard to do in any relationship and as time goes on it doesn't get any easier. It starts out slow then the emptiness one feels and once relived then the nightmares seem to start all over again. Will it ever end. Sometimes, maybe

Wow, Teresa! I love the comparisons between the two emotions in your two verses. Yeah, I agree, those nightmares can creep up on us and memories can haunt us awake and sleeping. Rey is fitting for sure.
Smiles,
Karyn :-)

Grey background for the grey area of your memories. Appropriate yes. Good conveyance of getting over someone, that critical time when, there's no problem feelings any more, they are gone. To seep back into the mind through dreaming, is there something missing when awake? or sentimental times are surrounding you?
Great little poem

    Nope, nothing missing but having been with him 30 years, he is bound to creep (double meaning:)) into my mind and my dreams.

reply by Lulube on 25-Sep-2017
    WOW more than half your life. You survived though and seem happier. We can find our way sometimes.

Yes life can be tough
for us all at times
Memories do flow
within our mind
we don't want them
go away.

Yes, a gray background is appropriate for expressing your painful memories. I hope the nightmares are over and you can focus on the good things in your life. Gentle hugs- Joan

Teresa,
This is a great poem with a strong message. Memories can & do cause pain if they are that kind of memory. You expressed your thoughts well. Just when everything seems to be going well, THAT memory shows up & all is downhill from then on.

Your words are well chosen & flow well with a message that probably many have faced. But it isn't the end of the world. Good memories will return with how you have moved on.

Thanks for sharing. Jan

Them exes...my first was incredibly bad for a while, at eighteen. After that they all got easier except the last. Excellent free verse, calling to mind that first one.

Hi Teresa, obviously written with much truth knowing your real story. One has to take the good with the bad in dreams - so what - in life you are free, happy, and able to carry on with your life. Well written and always good to get things down on paper. Warm regards Dorothy x
