"Whenever I despair, I remember that the way of truth and love has always won. There may be tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they may seem invincible, but in the end, they always fail. Think of it: always."
-Gandhi


I remember
when you sung me to sleep
because you knew that pain hurts the most when its alone

I remember
when the moon rose up, just high enough
so that i could see your eyes behind the night owls sheet

I remember
when I looked at that sheet and saw King's valley
and you reminded me there were stars

And I still remember
when i saw the fire behind the ice for the first time
in your eyes
because you cared

I remember
when there was a piece missing
and you looked everywhere to find it
and you did

I remember
when that shard of glass broken could not be fixed
and somehow in your hands it became whole

I remember
when the waves rolled out
and hope washed in, in your arms

And I still remember
the feel of your touch
as the sand gently caressed the tips of my toes

Recalling the past is often hard, when you know it will stay there.
