Never Shall I Forget

This was an assignment in my language arts class, I decided to write about my past and my boyfriend who helped me out of it

Never shall I forget my darkest days

Days when evil lurked in my gaze

The reflection without eyes

When pain was my only pleasure

A head full of lies

Days of hatred I could not measure 

The smell of smoke and burning skin

Days of hopelessness and doubt

The burning fire felt within

Days I would have rather gone without

The taste of evil, a bittersweet nectar

Days of starving and weighing in

When my soul was no longer my protector 

Desperately trying to be thin

Most of all, from when my days were grim

Never, ever, shall I forget

Him

The one who came to save me from myself

This topic is such a hard one to write about, as well as one familiar to me, and I admire your ability to capture the feeling of it!

Loved it, passionately somber with a spectacular ride on each line, I am looking forward to see what sort of direction you take on your next piece, with that sort of ending that's truly all I can really do.

Its lovely...its dark and a certain mystery is attached to it. Will look forward to another piece like this.

Well done poem, I liked how dark it was in the beginning where the speaker felt lost, reading it you just wanted to help them yourself. The ending was a nice touch to it, very good poem, keep it up!
