How painful are good memories
of times I can't revisit
recalled to me in sweet breezes
or the chirping of a cricket
How wonderful to hurt inside
because of things gone wrong
instead of weeping for the love
of times which long are gone
How sweet to hear the ringing phone
voices calling from the past
reminding me that solitude
like all will never last
How silent is the evening now
how bright the moonlit sky
with no one here to share it with
memory urges me to cry
How odd to think it's better to
have loved and lost than
to never love at all I think
I'll never love again
How many loves might I have luck
to feel within my time
Perhaps I've reached my limit yet
No more shall love be mine
How kind would fate be treating me
should amnesia come my way
that I might go on to love again
feeling happiness one day
How painful these good memories
recalling me to grief
should I yet find another love
will that bring me relief?

good write
@lanney - @buddy71 - Thanks, guys. Poetry isn't really my "thing," but I felt the muse on this one. Glad you liked. :)
Ah so bittersweet... very well written
