Shattered Memories

by *Charisma*   Dec 29, 2006


Leaving my heart torn and tattered
Bruises covering this soul; shattered
Reasons given are mixed and confused
Feel so lonely, lost, and abused
False hope spoken had shed dim light
Now forgotten, covered by night
Fear was hidden in good dreams
Love was never what it seemed
I thought pretend was real and true
My mind blinded lies you threw
Photos ripped upon the floor
Just like promises held before
Before the lies, deceit, and pain
Wait! This was all part of the game.
The smiles and times we shared
Were never real, you never cared
So I can't even have memories of you
Now how can I pull myself through?
Why'd you do this, leave me here
Soon I'll drown among my tears
I can't pickup nor can I move on
Nothing's left to make me strong
Stuck in the past that shouldn't be
Where you took the life from me.

    "The smiles and times we shared

    Lovely wording in this couplet! I loved the poem. I like the way it is all crammed into one stanza....it's a change of pace for me to read. Lovely job!

    I can so relate to this poem. Loved these lines:

    Fear was hidden in good dreams
    Love was never what it seemed
    I thought pretend was real and true
    My mind blinded lies you threw

    Great flow and rhyme throughout. Great job as always! 5/5
