a faded picture a battered frame yet the image remains unmarred a distant heart a broken dream a shattered soul within a fragile love a dim reflection grayed by the shadows of time a faded picture yet the memory shines clear forever dwelling within my soul -vlraynes "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes |

Wow! That would be quite a conquest for me, to have a clearer memory than a faded picture beheld. Of course, an awful lot of my memories are very long ago, now. ;o} Entertaining thought, though. |
