A smile brought me <br />into the world. <br />Under a shroud of stars, <br />the light came. <br />A consciousness of humanity. <br />I remember those early days <br />of dreaming and longing, <br />when I had no interventions <br />to tempt me away from innocence. <br />I remember the little glimmers <br />of sunshine on the grass, <br />the warmth that pierced through <br />the old, broken windows with <br />the putty and the paint peeling off. <br />A tear brought me loneliness, <br />while shattered dreams exploded <br />like cold splinters of ice <br />as I sat in my solitude. <br />I remember the futility <br />of young, foolish dreams <br />dashed on to the rocks <br />of the world as it was. <br />I remember being told <br />unceremoniously,to follow <br />a more 'normal' path. <br />Flat and unending, each part <br />made of the same type of brick. <br />I remember these few years <br />of fresh and invigorated mind, <br />where your scenery dances <br />before my brightened eyes. <br />I remember the faces <br />of those that spent the best of me, <br />and those who sheltered me from harm's way. <br />I will remember this time, <br />your face, your eyes, your every smile. <br />I will remember every touch, <br />your whispers, your movements, your laughs. <br />For you dance in my shadows, <br />you play with them, and shape them, <br />into something of your own creation. <br /> <br /> <br />...<img src="http://www.poetsquill.com/images/forums/emoticons/cool.gif" alt='8)' /> <br /> <br /> <br />
