Memories.
You will experience days where past lightning strikes.
Nights where dreams take you to your childhood.
Glimpse of days they looked many years ago.
Crying pain as when you lost your first love.
The pain that tells you where you come from.
It’s almost like a trip to the star you never reach.
Memories are the part of you that never forgets.
The memories are so much more than what you keep.
Memories are the tracks you leave the imprint of in someone else’s heart.
You will experience days when you feel the loss of yourself.
Nights where all that meant something creeps in.
Glimpse of the happiness you left behind when you walked away.
Crying pain in your failed ability never to find back right there.
The pain you brought with you is yours to keep.
It’s almost like the pain you gave away to someone else.
A well-composed, insightful, engaging poem.
A study in melancholy that is quite visceral in its way.The lyrics of Jacques Brel spring to mind.
“The pain you brought with you is yours to keep.
It’s almost like the pain you gave away to someone else.”
Poignant lines … deep down …
Beautiful!
