It will take me a while
To go back in time
To when I didnt know you
When we walked alone.
You were a forgotten memory
way back in time.
It will take me a while
To go back in time
To when I didnt know your love
When we were happy by ourselves
You didnt exist in my world
way back in time
It will take me a while
To go back in time
To when I didnt know of the Ache
When spaces in my heart was filled
You were not a need
way back in time.
It will take me a while
A long, long while
To go back in time
way back in time.

Wow....just Wow....What a soulful piece...My take :.. a want to find one's Self again.. where light shone all by itself inside and not ignited by another's needed energy.... Can we even remember who we were then?
Lovely evocative writing. Unusual concept.
what a wonderful feeling this must be (the after of way back in time)
I am not sure...I want to know how it would feel to Unknow the things I Know now.
Thank you Gilesy.
I didnt appreciate it then Danette...but now the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence *giggling*
Why ?
I found that Knowing certain things about certain people and the way things work, removes the joy in the interaction.
I completely understand... believe me I do.. as this has been a quandry of mine in the past. But here is a thought about it...It seems the more we know of anyone or anything, (as you express) the less we want anything to do with it, or them.. Why? Would you label that judgement? Fear? Too sharp of an image in the mirror? I have had a lot of years to come to terms with this in my own reactive arena. And I look back on so many things and people I have shied away from because of this so-called "knowledge". It was considered wise at one time ..as the saying goes..and to reiterate: "The less you know about someone, the better"...I would tend to agree on one level..but this also deters any intimacy in relationships... and one soon discovers that one has very few friends, if any, because of this idea. After all, one does like to be 'comfortable' in relationships, right?
Here is the other side of that coin... The whole point of being here on this amazingly diverse planet is to discover ourselves... and how do we do that? .. We can only discover who we are by observing ourselves in every aspect of this physical realm. We created this world.. we created our agenda, we created our personal world of relationships... Why? so that we can better understand ourselves. The more we look into the face of the physical evidence of our world, the more we see ourselves.. and the more abhorrant we find that world, the more we are reacting to what we see in the mirror..and judge ourselves. This entire illusion is a self created masterpiece of our own making.. and one we personally in spirit, devised, so that we can expand our consciousness, enlighten our spiritual energy, and find the secrets to compassion, and the detriments of fear. Any time we shy away from anything, it is because we fear it.. and the entire process , put simply , is to come to terms with fear, understand it as the dark part of our nature, and become comfortable with it, know it, embrace it, and be at peace with our true selves, as we are all things. Love and compassion spring from this knowing.. and the ultimate truth that we are all things... and when we shy away from anything... it is because we are not yet ready to admit that.
