Cremating Your Memory

Cremating Your Memory

Sometimes
I wish
I could cremate 
your memory

As the thoughts
of you
stand as a  Mausoleum
outside the window
of my soul

Frequently the 
Ghost
of our past
Haunts
me
Reminding
one
of the 
loss
that dreary
July Evening
bore

To sprinkle
the forsaken
sorrow of 
thee
would
allow
Dust
to be
Dust
and
forgiveness
to be the 
air 
of 
Tranquility.............................

Hey Dear Greg
Beauty ???? in terms of how you have captured it.
one thing..
This one has a lot of remorse hidden in it , pls correct me and i apologise as i dont like to hold judgements but these are the emotions i am capturing in this write.
You have definitely done your bit through this expression. 
Forgiveness is the key ? 
I usually once a week pray to god to clear up my circumstances to people who have left me cos of a misunderstanding.
It may be a person still holds a grudge and this is a general statement ( not hinting at this write at all) and sometimes may cause a bit of chaos in our lives.
im not sure if this makes sense but i forgive everyone every night starting with forgiving myself first and foremost.

pardon me for saying so much. I believe in leaving a heartfelt comment always. 

Very eloquent and tender this one ?

Thank you for your wonderful comments.  It was just my first Love.  I was heart broken.  I ran away and joined the Army because of the pain.  Though I have a wonderful wife who is so much better than I could ever dream and I love her like no other, the inability to make peace with this person has haunted me all my life.  She lives only 46 miles from me, but I have not spoken to her in 24 years.  I never will as sometimes you have to let things go
