Memory

by Krista   Feb 10, 2009


Two hearts beating quicker,
tugging at tired heart strings.
Holding, pulling closer,
wrapping fingers together.

Sugar and salt,
two opposites attract.
Blending together helplessly,
colors blinding to eyes.

Running to your mind,
tingles racing down nerves.
Finding the missing jigsaw piece,
a perfect fit in my memory.

    "Two hearts beating quicker,

    ^^This is beautiful, I found this opening stanza to be adorable, so sweet and moving that it pulled me into the piece, I really liked the use of "tired heartstrings."

    "Sugar and salt,
    two opposites attract.
    Blending together helplessly,
    colors blinding to eyes."

    ^^I found this stanza to be really unique, I love how you used sugar and salt, I think that worked really well here.

    "Running to your mind,
    tingles racing down nerves.
    Finding the missing jigsaw piece,
    a perfect fit in my memory. "

    ^^I'm not to sure of this..it seems weak, whereas the rest of the poem is incredibly strong throughout.

    That being said, I enjoyed this.
