Oh Memory Thy Name Is Longing

Oh memory thy name is Longing
You keep me in suspense
Holding tight to memories of wonder

Breathless, I reach again
For the outstretched arms I cannot see
For the quiet whispers my ears no longer hear

This is your doing
You who captured me
This is your terrible trap
I am caught in the silver slivers
Of waking dreams of you
And there is nothing I can do

But call your name into the air
And hope with all my heart
That one day
Amidst the noies of life

In one small silent space
A scintilla of time
You'll hear the sound of your name
Cried out in my muted voice
And answer me at last.

Vision Wolf, who is suffering the pain of being mortal and capable of
memories of loving
