I wrote about everything you do,
I wrote night and day,
But the sea of the ages washed it away,
I wrote again once more,
In journals i wrote all my heart could outpour,
I wrote it in all colors and shades,
But paper crumbles and ink fades,
I filled the pages with tears, that turned sour and rotten,
I wrote it in a song, but the notes are long forgotten,
I imangined it in my mind, but cells deteriorate,
And memories evaporate
So I etched it in my heart with a burning flame,
That spells out your name,
And as I go along my lifes way,
That is where it shall always stay.

And as I go along my lifes way,

This is a great poem. a few awkward lines but i loved the repeated metaphors and the constant struggle and failure expressed. very beautiful.

and please, continue to comment on my poems.
