A cloak of remembrance.
Drifting thoughts,
Afloat,
This journey takes me by the heart.
In truth,
I've forgotten your face,
When days steeped themselves
In months
And the image,
Over the horizon,
Faded into old nights
New days.
Just haunted by the shared,
The said, the stained
Black, blue.
There is nothing I regret,
But having passed
And held in, pushed away,
My memory, in the ten,
Becomes a less of you
Than I had dared
To understand or do.
I fight my will
I hold my breath
To travel with it
Or you
This time.
And drawing to a close
Around me,
I choose to shed. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 182 [topic] => 48 [informant] => reilt [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Cloak of Remembrance

This draws close around me,
A cloak of remembrance.
Drifting thoughts,
Afloat,
This journey takes me by the heart.
In truth,
I've forgotten your face,
When days steeped themselves
In months
And the image,
Over the horizon,
Faded into old nights
New days.
Just haunted by the shared,
The said, the stained
Black, blue.
There is nothing I regret,
But having passed
And held in, pushed away,
My memory, in the ten,
Becomes a less of you
Than I had dared
To understand or do.
I fight my will
I hold my breath
To travel with it
Or you
This time.
And drawing to a close
Around me,
I choose to shed.

That was so deep, i admit i had to read it 3 times, but that's what makes it so good, like a good film you always notice more, the more times you watch it. Excellent.
