Homeland (Quatrain)

by Meme   Oct 12, 2011


Even my poetry now seems
to find a way to miss you
it took me to different themes
to new places I never knew

I used to write my lines in rhyme
but somehow I drifted away
to find out that I'm lost in time
struggling to find back my way

You were my source of inspiration
I needed you as much as I needed air
My words used to fly with temptation
just by the wind playing with your hair

I miss you, I miss holding your hand
I miss mapping every line on your face
You know, I found in you my homeland
something I lost, and would never replace

    Meme.
    I somehow agree with Nana.

    You know what?
    It's the first time ever I read such a poem with such a flawless flaws-free rhyming scheme. It was spontaneous, and no word felt forced.

    You just poured your heart here.
    And the end.. I didn't expect it. The title also is amazing. It reflected what it was all about.

    Amazing piece.
