"THESE MEMORIES OF YOU... THIS IS NOT A LOVE POEM"

It has always been easier
to remember vividly
then forget completely
about these endless hallways
in which I store these thoughts.

And the appreciation of sunlight
is not the only beauty these rainstorms
with outstretched arms have brought
to eyes with pan a quiet ceiling to catch shadows
dancing in the corners of a moonlit hotel room
and perhaps I catch them
a moment after they shrink into stillness
or perhaps I always look too soon
but regardless
they escape me
like certainty, sensitivity and her concentration
and things change these days too quickly
to estimate a time frame or name a destination.

As I enter through these portals of mixed feelings
and miscommunicated points of view
and knee deep in these reflections
and remainders of connections
and deceptions
all I think about is truth
which is awkward first
and sacred second
as I am sinking further into these memories of you
which cradles me as if to say
(as you once did)

The journey always looks the clearest
after you've already traveled through.

  • Now that is poetry. Your voice lends itself well to reading poetry.

  • Darkspy72: Thanks for the nice remark... that was written of course by Tammera

    (1Aware1) who is really starting to get on my nerves because she is only 19 and she can write circles around me :P - seriously, she is worth a sub and like I say in the video - she is very under-rated... she prints all her words in the side bar and is just... amazing... her and MsWriteNow are two people really worth checking out if you are looking for poetry with real content...

  • I just LOVE the way you read this poetry! I don't know who, but you remind me of somebody~ hmmmm........???

    Anyway, terrific job on a beautiful poem! I will definitely check her out~

    (don't wanna get bitten by Mone O.O yikes! :)

  • SweetQueen: Mone knows a rabbit lover when she sees one... she won't bite you... unless you cut off the carrots and caviar! :p

  • Beautiful poem!

  • LeReina: There is something about these words that get under your skin... I'm glad Tammera let me do her poem...
