In The Book Of Me

by Meme   Sep 1, 2011


Yesterday, a ghost of an
old heartbreak came visiting.
I believed that I collected the
remains of my heart, but I
found a missing piece, the
moment I saw him. How could
one word like "Hello" tremble
my soul, and send me back
to that day, four years ago.

A day when I found my heart
beating with the name of love.
Only it was too late, cause his
heart was chained with another
love. I cried him a river, or perhaps
an ocean of endless tears.
The sound of his voice later on,
would lead me to an agonizing
coma, until I become senseless.

He became a state of mind, an
unconscious condition that takes
over me. Some days I miss him,
some days I forget him, but in
certain days I wake up with this
ache. So I write him a poem,
perhaps a song, or even a doodle
in my notes, but somehow he
invaded every chapter in the book of me.

    I loved your closing stanza the most, it was amazingly unique and creative, but it was the strongest which is good yet should also suggest a bit of tiny things that could make the flow better for the other stanzas...
    I will leave them edited over here..you can compare and check yourself what I mean, perhaps disagree :) :

    however, very sad and heartbreaking poem, full of sadness and honesty.
    your closing lines talk of the impact that person left over you!

    Hmmm, I love this piece dear, because it is easy very easy to relate to it, I know 1st hand how it feels as if you have forgoten the person you live, only to get this very uncomforting buzz, that effed up feeling you get when you see them for the 1st time from a while, also, that state of mind, the discomfert zone you feel, some days you forget them some days you miss them and feel like talking to them, and somedays you wake up with that ache, the same ache that I know empowerd you to write such a masterpeice, I really hope this wins, because I think everyone can relate to it :) much love and hope you write more because you're a wonderful poet. A powerful poet.
