Memories of the FutureA Poem by RequsTwirling under stars’ afternoon In the amusement park of dreams content Nothing to vent Relinquishing my ideas To relieve my own consent Plagued with free smiles A submission from my own guile Thousands of miles away At peace with him in my arms A peace not the greatest of enemies can harm A swarming of love Sets in deep, feeling disconnected…. Feeling in this moment Lion’s golden light Peaceful stillness The suns fiery might Silent sirens Everything ripe, everything better, everything fine Extending past the fall of night In this moment The joy makes us shiver Our sensual involvement projects the story of escape Shadows beyond the mirror………………… (We; the two balloons let loose off into the breeze Tightly entangled Both reaching gravity’s height, fine with flowing all the up Without fear of what could be ahead With nothing else left to be said Where the word youth Became nothing more than a state of mind We pity the crowd below Because we are grateful For being stripped of their lead-like shackle We watch it fall behind We watch everything; fall behind A sight of pure relieve A sight without sound;) ………………… Clear as spring water All of this I somehow remember Makes my mind feel haunted Because these memories which I never participated Saturate my feelings at the fastest rate Even zoning back into life’s steady precipitation of hate Where their layers upon layers of anti-self still accumulate Where their simmering evil that cannot be forgotten Might actually be slipping away I don’t even need to focus or try I lose myself, I get lost Somewhere left of vivid reality It can’t be helped I’m encapsulated No; rather, infatuated with my own thoughts Ever contemplating the life I never lived Could’ve been the best life I could’ve ever had Maybe or may not would be the right answer In end, I gather Memories of the future Brew a restless ever-lasting optimism Which aspires for us to endure all disasters For the rest of our final endeavor This has to be all part of what must matter © 2010 Requs |
