Changes
Lost In A Memory
Dancing with the devil, before the gray foreboding sky
Images of yesterday, and when we had to say goodbye
She kept us glued together, now we’ve been scattered in the wind
Tomorrow is a promise, we may never see again
Remembering a different world, the one she kept alive
Another loss of innocence, all gone, the day she died
Can’t believe she’s gone away, I never knew the day would come
That home would become a place
I really don’t belong
Once a place where dreams were magic, manifesting memories
Now an overwhelming garden in dire need of TLC

Oh Kelli How I feel you. The longing for before: ‘Remembering a different world, the one she kept alive …’ When my Mum died. Our family fell apart into chaos. I felt my presence tolerated and I went to gatherings with my son, attending for him and him alone. Many times I felt completely rejected. Scorned. Since that day 2 relationships have been repaired. But the sister I was so close to over many, many years has completely withdrawn. Missing in action. Telling me 3 or so years ago that I was not family. Pauline 🌸
Such sentiment in this one, Kelli! I felt this so much - to me it speak of remembering what "home" used to be; the nostalgia for something that doesn't exist in the sam way anymore ❤️ Amazing work!
