'You know how the time flies,only yesterday was the time of our lives,'I whispered along,my trembling blue fingers clutching an indigo pebble.Sapphire eyes raking the rosy skies, occasionally shot with t he perfect orange my eyes start to sting warningly at the meaningful words. I lobbed the rock at the rippling blue waters,whispering to me.How is it such words control my emotions so much, how is it I let let a mere sentence trigger my eyes to water at the simple thought of my past.
*******************************
My beating head flashes through the last seventeen painful years ,the remaining part of me searching restlessly for a happy memory .A warm glow . The knowing and twinkling eyes of a father who loved .The mug of hot cocoa and wonderful hugs that meant a mother.The hug that I never knew.The grin that that never belonged.
