About this Book: |
|
For some of us, there are times in our lives when reality seems hard to endure. In those times we find ourselves drawn or lured into passionate fantasies which we know are neither morally nor spiritually acceptable, but which, at those times, we cannot resist.
We can only look back upon those times with regret and ask forgiveness of those we hurt by our actions.
Even then, as the years go by, we find there are many people we can’t forget. Some were just passing fancies and exist only as wispy wraiths in the dark corners of our minds, but others… others “left footprints on our hearts” and will never be forgotten.
These poems and essays come from where memory lingers, from those times when reality was not where we wanted to be.
