But I can't remember me...

But I can't remember me...

A Poem by Bhavya Kaushik

 

 

 

...

 

 

 

 

But I can’t remember me…

 

 

I so clearly remember the past,

And still memorize every single day.

But now everything is turning into ashes,

And I only bleed pain along my way.

 

I know that I still exist in this brutal world,

But I barely know now who I am?

Here in nothingness I stand,

Where my life seems only like a game.

 

In my dreams you are always mine,

But in my life you are just a dream.

I only remember you and your name,

Which I only cry and scream.

 

In front of any mirror whenever I stand,

There is a stranger whom I see.

I still remember you...you… and you….

But… I can’t remember me…

 

But I can’t remember me

Wow...this is so very powerful. It is full of the torment of life. It is strange how most everyone at some point in their life faces an identity crisis. Sometimes it is hard to remember who we are through the pain. If we are not careful, the pain even becomes our identity. Then for sure it is harder to let go of our pain and heal. It is a scary thing to not be sure of who you are. Kudos on a tremendous write!

Wow! so powerful, so strong...so very painful, so moving...

"In my dreams you are always mine,
But in my life you are just a dream.
I only remember you and your name,
Which I only cry and scream.

In front of any mirror whenever I stand,
There is a stranger whom I see.
I still remember you...you� and you�.
But� I can't remember me�"

these lines left me speechless...outstanding work my friend...stirring deep feelings within me that i really can't express...can perfectly really relate to this...

I'd call this a piece of your heart...

thanks for sharing...

regards
Barricade...

I did go through this piece a couple of days back but left this page without leaving behind a review...the reason being that I couIdn't find any words to describe what I felt let alone writing anything about this poem.

And even now I'm not sure I can express what I feel. This is one of those poems which one would like to read again and again because with every read, the feelings seem to deepen, the emotions grow...

I loved the title very much. But my favorite lines are:
In my dreams you are always mine,

But in my life you are just a dream.

Well done, Bhavya. If you can express so much through your writing, i wonder how much you feel...??

I don't know ...

The flow of imagery and words is simply brilliant. Your emotion, your message, your haunting revelation of lost self is powerfully spoken, line by line... Been too long since I've read your poetry...

i see that the inspiration finally hit you...this is a really powerful write, like a lot of your others dealing with this very subject. the loss of someone special that one really cared about sometimes leaves that feeling. to be so wrapped up into someone else, you can really 'lose' yourself...so when they leave, you are left with wondering who you are, along with the pain of loss.....

wonderfully written, as only you can do it :)

Dude, this was awesome. I can't express the feel in words as you did here.
It is such a masterpiece

It is very rare when you read a poem like this, which forces you to read it again and over again.
This was terribly sad Bhvya , Everything was perfect from pictures to fonts to your words.
Very soulful it is.
