Memories

Memories

A Poem by wordman



In the misty waters

of my mind,

i reminisce of the hallowed,

memories that i left behind.

 

Once as vivid

as night and day

now only misty memories

slowly fading away

 

Fading away

like a gentle breeze

on a summers day

but it seems everything fades away

 

Even those

hallowed memories

of me and you,and the feelings,

that we once knew...

thank you for reading
The candle was very comforting when I opened the page. Memories hurt at times whether they are bittersweet, horror, or Ecstasy, and so on. I love how you attach nature to ease the tone. At times, we don't always remember the past correctly. Trauma ends up repressing bad memories.

Thank you for sharing.

Your welcome. Have a splendid day!
I love reading poems that truly make you understand and relate.
This did not only that but also made me realise that you are not alone in sadness, it's normal.
Well done

You really express the emotion of loss very well. It's sad when even the memories fade and time seems to become a curse.. well done..xo

thank you for the review richard
The imagery on this one was great! Based on my interpretations, I can visualize my memories that haunt me, fade away. I was always told to never look back and learn from your mistakes. I like how "night" and "day" are portrayed. As each day passes by, I/we slowsly being to forget the best memoires/moments that have occurred. The mood in this poem is very reminiscing, and it kind of has a sad tone to that. I really liked your writing on this one.
