Remember Me

Remember Me

A Poem by Hazelhippie
"

I wrote this about three years ago and it has been my favorite since. I was very sad and broken when I wrote this, but it is still so beautiful to me.

"

I remember how the light used to warm my skin,

Touched my soul and cradled me in, 

Towards the heavens to a brighter light,

Away I went where I no longer cried, 

 

How the wind softly sang to me in a voice so sweet, 

To lead me to a place where I finally could sleep, 

No more nightmares haunted my darkest nights, 

Only the peaceful and breezy lullabies, 

 

The stars I could stare at for days, 

The way their bright beauty kept me in a lovely daze, 

It was addicting to watch them dance in the darkened sky, 

Showing me that there really was beauty in life, 

 

I remember the cool splashes of rain, 

The kind that just sank to my soul and made it sing, 

The way I would dance freely in nature's clean slate, 

Feeling the earth all around me made life so overwhelmingly great, 

 

I remember all of those wondrous and happy things, 

Mainly because my soul can no longer sing, 

I'm left in the dark with no more light, 

No longer does the wind sing me a lullaby, 

 

I'm just trying to remember how life used to make me feel, 

Trying not to live a life without the hope that happiness is real, 

Trying to get back on my feet so I can dance in the cool rain, 

Connecting with the Earth so my heart can sing, 

 

But lately I have been losing this fight, 

Day by day I am losing that blessed light, 

It's no longer rain that splashes on my face, 

But the tears that I cry for the better days, 

 

The cold and lonely bathroom floor is all I can feel, 

I get swallowed up and taken by all my fear, 

Wishing the light would warm my skin, 

And just save me from this hell I have been living in, 

 

But I will never feel that warmth one last time, 

I will never again hear the wind's beloved lullaby, 

The free spirited rain has forever left my life, 

Leaving me no choice but to want to die, 

 

Maybe in the end my spirit will dance, 

Maybe my soul will sing in a lovely trance, 

Maybe the light will guide me home, 

Maybe to a life better known, 

 

I'll still remember the warm and soothing light, 

The lovely whispers of lullabies, 

I'll still remember those bright and beautiful free stars, 

And the rain that washed away all of my scars.

This one is nice. I just thought this one could be entitled I remember then remember me but it could also suggest that way. Anyway, I feel the emotion in it.
