Last night I heard a tear drop fall as I lay silently awake in bed .....
It told a story we all know but keep safely inside our heads....

It talked of faded laughter ..of dreams we once all knew.. and up until that fateful day we just all knew would come true...

It reminisced of childhood days and things we use to do...

It talked of Love's that's long since gone and the scares that they had made....

It talked of wrong choices and the troubles they brought our way....

It remembered the taste of Birthday cakes and dancing in the snow...

It remembered the smell of Christmas Eve's and day's from long ago....

It recalled the ocean to a little girl that as a women she'll never know....

But as the last sound that night still echo's in my ears ....
that's the sound that a prison cell makes as it's filling up with tears.

Note: you must live it, to learn it sometimes!
But the lessons of wisdom achieved behind
Those walls; is surly nothing could ever take!!
