The water remembers
What can we fathom from our past... to learn… to play over and over again… to make us happy in our time of need… or save us in a blink of an eye… The water remembers….
I remember waking up in the afternoon, alone, after twelve hours and then going back to sleep…
I remember chasing the spirits then once caught running in fear, away, because they wanted to play tag…
I remember sitting alone staring at the river… flowing ever so softly with the dripping of the water falling aimlessly off the rocks and joining its family once again…
I remember being asked what was wrong with me… a million times over… and a tear was my only answer…
I remember watching the rain fall from the open window of my bedroom and slowly falling asleep to the soothing sound as it hits the concrete void…
I remember running in the tall grass without a purpose but to have fun with my only companion left, Diabla…
I remember watching her fade from the drive way in a stranger’s car and a million tears roll down my eyes for each one is for the seconds in the 7 years I spent with her…
I remember the first happiness I felt in a long time when I meet you... your face childlike but your eyes told an old story… so I wait… months… no… a year… now I finally have you.. So what’s wrong…?
I remember being closer, than two souls can ever get to each other, with you…
I remember seeing all my friends and family die… and haunt my very soul…
I remember seeing my kids… all three still stay beside me… but left a long time ago…
I remember the world ending… so why do I still stand... It faded, disappeared before my eyes and crumbled beneath my feet… So where am I…?
I remember being with you forever and not having to stress about a thing… Do you remember…?
I remember being at peace… my family was happy… we were happy and the only thing we all had to worry about was what fun tomorrow will bring… Where are those days…? Do you remember…?
The waters of my soul never forget… the past has left an imprint that will never fade… and I will never be who I was before… I saw the past… I see the present… and I saw the future… now I wait to see it all again… as I forget… The waters of my soul remember…
