The Lost Poem

Losing a piece of writing is such an empty feeling....

It is the absence of a single sheet of paper

Among the piles of them covering my floor

Like snow white mountains

 

Unnoticed to all but I

Who did not scale these mountains but created them

My footsteps carved in pen

 

It was a poem

I scarce remember word for word

About love or death or friends or dreams

 

All I know is that it’s gone

And I’ve lost a part of me

This poem had me throwing up and diahreaing at the same time.

Great piece of work!

This makes me sad... It is written well, and even though to me the paper means absolutely nothing, it still brings out emotion. Very well done :) By the way, i read your story and loved it so i'm reading your poems now =D Definate good start
