A Tossed Love Potion

I remember the pain

of that day;

so today,

I’ll capture that

piece of my heart

and place it in

a glass jar.

Bonjour!

Plus comme bon voyage...

Here on the shore,

I toss the memories

into the sea,

so that they’ll

never be

dealt, felt, or smelt

ever again…

Just one with

the wicked ocean.

I didn't know you know French!!! Ah, you and I are alike in this, I usually gather memories in boxes and gently set them free into the sea (literally!). Though probably all in my head, I feel a heavy weight lift off my shoulders. A new beginning commences. Adieu et bon voyage indeed to yesterdays!

Just a tad bit here and there.
That is so awesome! I have only done that once, but there are times where I write things that I want to let go into the abyss; in which, I feel no one else should read or know - not even myself, so I burn them.
Most days I feel like do that to all my works, but then I think twice about it and post them on here now.
Thank you so much Nadia!

Love it!! I'd like to sit with you and throw a bottle of my own! Lol
You have a way with words and images for sure! Always a pleasure to read! I needed this today! Maybe I'll take my thoughts about my current situation and light a match!! Ha!
Encouraged me today! "Wicked ocean"

Ahh if only it was that easy... I feel those memories still make their way towards us even though we toss them away..

A good piece, well penned.

My friend. Amazing poetry. You took me to places and deep thoughts. I liked the complete poem. You create places of decisions and I liked the ending. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

'Rêves brisés' - best to box & toss! Great metaphorical composition; well penned and delivered! Kudos my friend .........

Omg , this is amazing i read it twice, it is so emotional , your feeling reached me :)

[Zoya]

The poem is really sweet, in fact the idea of dispersing your emotions into the sea is something which I found more interesting. Nonetheless, I really liked the poem. Well written!

Very interesting my heritage is French so you get bonus points. However this is short yet still has a lot into it, I am use to more raw power from you upfront not having to look for it. Though lovely poem my dear very unique work from you.

Always a pleasure Raylene! And bonus points indeed because I've learned something new about you.

I do enjoy being raw and upfront, but I've been incorporating some new techniques that yes, will force readers to search deeper, not into what I say... but within themselves...
Thank you for always spending the time to leave me you thoughts, I highly appreciate them.

Will do my friend

"I'll capture a piece of my heart and place it in a glass jar." This is beautiful and somehow a bit ironic considering how fragile the heart is and placing it into something even more fragile. Well done!

[sinNsincerity]

It is totally Ironic and glad you brought that to my attention Krisna!
Thank you so much for reading, I highly appreciate it!
