Swept Away
Sloan Parker
I
wonder if I’d ever been truly swept away.
Not in those moments in time when I looked at one of my daughters and had
the absolute clarity of colors in the world around me and the epiphany of true
and genuine unfettered love. I wonder if I’d ever been swept away with being in
love.
Perhaps
my memories have faltered or perhaps those past loves really were always bogged
down with too much baggage to stay untainted, even in memory. For me “the way
we were” was too painful, but I remember.
Sloan
Parker gives me hope (not for me, I no longer want those things and can hardly
believe in them), but for my daughters, for my friends and family or for anyone
else out there. I want to know that people can remember why the fell in love
and get “Swept Away.” Thank you Ms. Parker.
