I thought that all my yesterdays would fade away
but I find they grow and fill the empty space when my mind is quiet
the child I was and the woman I became
live together in my mind
yesterdays visit my dreams
in the oddest times they pop into my mind
lingering as ghosts
some whom I love and some I confess I hate
I feel sure they will stay with me dancing on the edge of what is now
making me determined to cherish and keep those who are here
let ghosts sleep and the living love

Hope all is well and Happy New Year
