echo voices October 16, 2010

So there she is,

tears pouring down the face, 

having a conversation with an imaginary you. 

There you are, 

Still making observations that

…touch the core of things. 

… Melt with their poignancy.

…Challenge with their truth. 

…Encourage with their tenderness. 

The voices of memory

still real

guiding and teaching.

I think we might as well

give up on waiting for them

to disappear.

The paper strengthens them,

and love echoes through them.

Despite…

well,

you know.
