Burning My Mind

 

 

J ust a memory now for some,

   for them you flickered and faded quickly

O nly for me, you are burning

    brighter than ever before

H olding my mind, refusing to let go

     scorching my memories

N ever will there be another like you

    no one could ever match your light

N ever will you be forgotten

    you are seared into my heart

y ou remain, an eternal flame

   burning my mind.

A very sad acoustic poem, you have written. Not sure, if you're writing about a first lover, who has moved on leaving you behind to mourn the lost. Or, a young child, who tragdically past away suddenly from you. Your poem moves me, so many ways that i feel like, i'm living these experiences with you. Thank you for sharing this very emotional acoustic poem with us.

I could really feel the heart breaking in your words with this finely written acrostic poem that signifies what it means to hurt, to feel sadness, in the way of losing a love held close to the heart, the sentimental feeling is flowing, the

creativeness placed into the form sets the justification, there are many aspects to ponder when reading, firstly, how we hold onto memories which in many ways is what this great poem is about, the seering of memories, and their ability to bring back

feelings of love, life, and dreams, as well as pain. I'm sure whomever this was for would be proud, your words are touching, the effort put forth shows care,
and a willingness to strive for perfection. Nicely Done.
Take Care, Mike
